To observe it you have to interact with it in some way. This mean in order to “see” it you need to shoot some photons at it or send some radio signals which will reflect. It all has an influence.
So the problem is not “observing” in in some philosophical sense. The problem is that you need to interact with it in order to “observe” it.
It’s the interaction that makes “wave function to collapse” not the fact that you observed it.
If you use your eyes, nothing happens. Most people think “observe” means they can just look at the experiment and expect it to change. That’s why so many people end up in metaphysics thinking their own perception has any impact on the outcomes of physical states. In reality, it makes no difference.
I’m sorry but what you describe pretty much sounds like… observed
