Smart-glasses awareness for iPhone.
NearLens is a local-first privacy infrastructure project for making observable signals from nearby camera-equipped wearables visible and understandable. Passive wireless signals are processed entirely on your iPhone: no cloud upload and no identifiers transmitted.
Identify observable Bluetooth Low Energy signals that may be compatible with known camera-equipped wearables. NearLens scans passively without pairing with the nearby device or intercepting its content.
Present the observed evidence and its limits in language people can inspect. A compatible signal is not treated as proof of recording, and no result is not treated as proof that compatible hardware is absent.
Support explicit, documented protocols such as PMSG, so future wearables can announce privacy-relevant states directly. This moves the ecosystem from inference toward signals that hardware teams can implement, test, and challenge.
