The Holo-Monocle is a gadget in Secret Agent Clank. It takes a 3D picture of another robot to then create a holoprojection which he is sheathed inside,[1] effectively making it a hologuise that can select its disguise. Clank obtained the Holo-Monocle during "Paradise Exploited", given to him by the Agency to sneak through Le Paradis Des Tricheurs Casino.

The player can use the Holo-Monocle to scan enemies (or other background characters, such as waitresses and space tourists) and reveal information about them (such as their name, homeworld, classification, and a variety if minor details). Some robots can then be used to create a hologuise of that robot, and fool all enemies aside from the robot that they scanned. Different enemy disguises may be needed to sneak into different areas, meaning the player must be careful when changing disguise. Additionally, when Clank takes damage or jumps, the disguise is dropped.
