🛡️ Patterned Shield

Browser-based deepfake image protection tool



A client-side tool implementing three adversarial disruption techniques — Moiré mesh overlays, asymmetric dual-lighting, and reflective hotspot simulation — to confuse facial-landmark detection used by deepfake AI. Zero server. Zero data upload. Runs entirely in-browser.
