Flipper Zero hacking tool gets ESP8266 Deauther add-on for Wi-Fi security and research

PCB Studios has just launched the “Flipper Zero ESP8266 Deauther” adapter board for Flipper Zero that enables users to conduct de-authentication attacks on Wi-Fi networks. Running a modified version of SpacehuhnTech’s ESP8266 Deauther software, this board has a variety of actions for testing 802.11 wireless networks. Its primary function, deauthentication, sends deauthing packets to the target network, disconnecting devices from their 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks. In our last post about Flipper Zero, we wrote about Flipper Add-On CANBus a CAN bus hacking tool that can sniff, send, and log CAN bus packets. Other than that we have seen similar tools like the M1 multitool and HackBat which can be considered as Flipper Zero alternatives with STM32H5 and Raspberry Pi RP2040 MCUs and Wi-Fi connectivity. We have also written about various ESP8266 and ESP32-based Deauther tools like the DSTIKE Deauther Watch X, the Cheap Evil Tech Deauther board, and ESP32 Marauder […]

ANAVI Dev Mic is a digital omnidirectional microphone based on Raspberry Pi RP2040 MCU (Crowdfunding)

The ANAVI Dev Mic is an open-source microphone board from ANAVI Technology in Plovdiv, Bulgaria powered by the Seeed Studio XIAO RP2040 module and an omnidirectional digital microphone from STMicroelectronics. It is a compact and affordable product that outperforms USB microphones in artificial intelligence and machine learning voice applications. The design is simple and unassuming, with the Seeed Studio XIAO RP2040 module in the center, surrounded by a USB-C port for power and programming and 9 GPIO pins for extensibility. The STMicroelectronics MP23DB01HP microphone (MK1) is mounted on the top of the board with a small hole on the bottom. It is a compact, low-power, digital MEMS microphone capable of capturing sounds from different directions with very low distortion. It uses a PDM (Pulse-Density Modulation) interface created via the programmable inputs/outputs (PIO) on the RP2040. The ANAVI Dev Mic is applicable for conducting AI/ML research, building a voice recognition platform, […]

Radxa X4 SBC kit review – Part 1: Unboxing, case assembly, Ubuntu 24.04 installation

The Radxa X4 is a single-board computer that uses an Intel N100 processor instead of an Arm-based SoC found in most SBCs and also embeds a Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller for GPIO control. What’s interesting is that the Radxa X4 is a small computer board with a similar form factor as the Raspberry Pi 5 SBC, but benefits from the higher performance of Intel “Alder Lake-N” Processor N100 CPU and out-of-the-box compatibility with most operating systems, except for specific features such as GPIOs. The Intel N100 board also comes with a built-in M.2 M-key socket (so no need for an extra HAT) that supports higher speed storage thanks to a PCIe 3.0 x4 interfaces, as well as WiFi 6 connectivity, making the Radxa X4 an interesting option for those looking for a small, capable computer board for home, IoT, or industrial use. The company sent us a full kit with […]
