SafeSight | MIT Reality Hack 2026

AR-powered personal safety for college campuses built on Snap Spectacles. SafeSight creates a shared, real-time safety network that keeps you present and aware without requiring you to look at your phone.


Features

  • AR Navigation - Follow a heads-up arrow along a Google Maps walking route to your destination
  • Hazard Flagging - Report suspicious individuals, environmental hazards, or armed individuals via palm-anchored buttons
  • Real-Time Alerts - Instantly notify and receive alerts from nearby users within a 1-mile radius
  • Dynamic Re-routing - Automatically receive safer walking routes around reported hazards
  • Blue Light Locator - See the nearest campus emergency blue light stations in AR
  • Emergency Mode - Records 5 seconds of POV footage and sends it with your location to trusted contacts via a companion iOS app

Built With

  • Lens Studio - AR lens development for Snap Spectacles
  • Snap Cloud - Real-time hazard sharing and emergency video upload
  • Google Maps Routes API - Walking route generation and hazard-aware re-routing
  • Supabase - Backend database for hazard and location data
  • Swift - iOS companion app
  • TypeScript - Lens scripting

Challenges

  • Integrating the Google Maps Routes API to efficiently parse waypoints and trigger re-routing around dynamic hazard locations
  • Managing lat/lon coordinate syncing for live hazard updates with low latency
  • Building a reliable frame capture, encode, and upload pipeline for emergency video
  • Wiring Supabase and Snap Cloud together for video stitching in the companion app

Roadmap

  • .edu email verification for campus-locked access
  • Expanded routing intelligence using spatial data and historical hazard patterns
  • AI audio assistant for real-time situational guidance
  • Alert validation and misuse filtering
  • Integration with official campus safety systems
  • User testing to refine interaction speed and clarity
