The novel
A Scanner Darkly is a 1977 science fiction novel by Philip K. Dick. The semi-autobiographical story was set in a dystopian Orange County, California in the future of June 1994. The book can be considered Dick's master statement on drug abuse, in light of his extensive portrayal of drug culture and drug use.from Wikipedia

- Explanation of the novel's title
The "scanner" is a holographic recorder/projector on which the main character is made to view clips of his own life by his superiors. It is also a reference to a Biblical verse in 1 Corinthians 13 that includes "we see as through a glass darkly", and thus refers to the main character's weak grasp on reality.[1] Ingmar Bergman's 1961 film, Through a Glass Darkly, lifts its title from the same passage. Furthermore, the initials of Scanner Darkly are also the initials of Substance D, which the characters refer to as Slow Death.
In Chapter Eleven of the novel, the novel's central character, Bob Arctor / Fred, thinks to himself, "Does a passive infrared scanner ........ see into me - into us - clearly or darkly?" - A Scanner Darkly (film) wikipedia entry
