Lavender Cover Guard turns seizure-safety research into a fast, protective browser layer for real-world browsing.
Built during a Workday and CS++ sprint, the project detects risky flashing or seizure-triggering visuals and interrupts exposure before the content fully lands on screen.

Lavendar Cover Guard
Problem
Social and web content can expose photosensitive users to dangerous flashes before they have time to react or scroll away.
Approach
The extension watches incoming visuals, detects high-risk content patterns, and applies a shielded state to buy the user time and control.
Outcome
Recognized with two hackathon awards and turned into a fuller technical case study hosted externally.
