Spectracle is a custom augmented reality environment, available in both a phone app and clip on lens format. It allows the user to visually unlock hidden content embedded in everyday images. By pointing the camera at SpectrAl carrier logos, Spectracle decodes and reveals steganographic messages as an overlay in its field of view securely, in real time, and only after PIN-gated access. It’s designed for reliable, confidential information retrieval, turning ordinary scenes into secure, multiplexed channels of communication.
