Img2cad 7 2 serial numbers. WiFi cameras like many other devices these days come equipped with some sort of Linux subsystem. This makes the life of a tinkerer easier and you know what that means. [Tomas C] saw an opportunity to which comes configured to work only with proprietary apps and cloud. The hack involves voiding the warranty by taking the unit apart and installing custom firmware onto it.

Photos posted by [Tomas C] show the mainboard powered by an which is a popular IP Camera processor featuring some image and video processing sub-cores. Upon successful flashing of the firmware, the IP camera is now capable of a multitude of things such as remote recording and playback which can be configured using the web UI as documented by [Tomas C] We did a little more digging on the and discovered that the original author of the custom firmware, [EliasKotlyar] has done a lot of work on this project. There are loads of and an excellent set of documentation of how he made the hack. Everything from adding serial headers, getting root access, dumping the firmware and even toolchain links are given on the page. This is extremely handy for a newbie looking to get into the game. And IP Cameras are not of the only hackable hardware out in the wild.

There are other devices that are running Linux based firmware such as the that run OpenWRT. Check out if you are looking to get started with your next IP Camera hack. Thanks for the tip [Orlin82] • • • • Posted in Tagged,,,,, Post navigation. Probably none. All those cameras/DVRs, especially the cheap Chinese ones, contain video encoders which probably infringe some patents (almost certainly the GNU license since they all use Linux plus proprietary modifications), let alone their strange tendency to phone home, so producers have no intention to open the platform or publish source codes.

It would be nice to reverse engineer some of those cheap 4/8 channel DVRs as they all contain fast ADCs for video, GPIO lines for alarms, ethernet, USB and SATA, which would make them interesting for hacking. They can be found new at a price comparable to a Raspberry PI or similar SBC, or a lot cheaper used.

A couple examples. You can find the SDK and quite some technical details on Chinese forums. Enough to build your own application firmware to run on it. But the hardware is quite special purpose The ADCs are fast, but have an integrated video decoder, so they output already digital video and not just the samples. The video receiver peripheral inside the CPU is tightly coupled to a video encoder and display engine so you can’t really make anything else than a DVR.

Some of these chips may be interesting as a cheap CPU (2-10$) capable of running linux. Quite some come in TQFP package. The Allwinner V3s seems very well suites for that, it has integrated DRAM. The Hisilicon Hi3520 is also a nice option in TQFP but needs external RAM. I ended up getting a power brick for christmas with a sd card reader, wifi, RJ45 jack, 2 usb and of course the battery. It was $15 CAN dollars at of course Canadian Tier. I really believe there is a nice little computer inside to hack.

Great little device. I cant wait to get in side of it. It is very well built.

A little to much. It is in a plastic case but really well built. Tried once to open it, but to much plastic to do a quick peak in side. At the time I tried to find any info I could on it with no luck. The name of the device is Gigastone.

I did find there web site and emailed them but they never replied back. Xexmenu download free. I have never considered the security risks, since I only use them for outside surveillance. However I can imagine that you don’t want a poorly secured (the camera does use a unique ID and a 8 character password) live feed from inside your home going who knows where. You can assign a fixed IP via the camera’s software, then block off outside RTSP and uPnP access. Then use a camera manager to setup a secure connection.
