A collection of shell-script-based modifications for the XiaoFang WiFi camera, delivered via a bootable SD card that runs scripts on the device. It adds a web interface, telnet access, and other customizations while keeping the stock firmware largely intact.
Use cases
- unlock telnet and ssh access on a XiaoFang camera
- run the camera without relying on the vendor cloud
- add a web interface to control the camera locally
- stream RTSP video from a XiaoFang camera
- customize the camera firmware via an SD card hack
- revert the camera to stock behavior by removing the SD card
When to choose
- you own a XiaoFang WiFi camera and want local control or custom features
- you want a minimally invasive hack that is reversible by removing the SD card
- you prefer not to fully reflash the device firmware
When to avoid
- you have a different camera model
- you need a fully supported, actively maintained solution - the project's last release was 2020
- you cannot tolerate the risk of bricking the device, since there is no known recovery image
