I've been messing with an idea where I'm sonifying BTLE data and I've gotten a somewhat pleasing result. They're like little pokemon noises :D

Sorry for the lack of streams lately! Been working on some chaos that has occurred around the house and a few long term projects that I will hopefully be able to share in the coming weeks :)

The government doesn't want you to know this but the BLE beacons at the park are free, you can take them home with you. I have over four hundred and sixty five BLE beacons.

holy fuck this surveillance alarm clock I bought from the feds is crazy hot on 2.4ghz. The spec sheet says it does 100mW out but my math says it's AT LEAST a 3W transmitter.

I guess when the FCC licensed this thing back in '95 they weren't concerned with jamming wifi...

a screenshot of GQRX 2.4ghz radio spectrum waterfall, there is a huge wall of yellow and red as the device is turned on and it starts drowning my wifi devices.

a top down photo of a splayed open alarm clock on a work bench showing the hidden camera and transmitter along with the decent sized patch antenna.

a scrot of the device spec sheet showing the RF output listed at 100mW but the input voltage is listed 10-13vdc @ 300ma....

a photo of the back of the alarm clock showing a golden FCC sticker with the ID: NH5FWVTXBD12A
underneath that it says tested under part 90 FCC Rules

I posted a poll looking see where the interest lies in the next piece of hardware I take a look at.

Toss a vote if you wanna see something specific!

So I'm wrapping up the work I've been doing on the DisplayPad hardware and I wanted to throw out a poll to see what people wanted me to work on next. Here's ...

Okay, I finally learned enough Kdenlive to mash together a more formal video on the general process I took to reverse engineer this device and write my own shitty drivers with python, hope you enjoyyyy :)
