🎯 Features & Components

Explore the impressive features of our wardriver:

  • • Real-time detection and recording of Wi-Fi networks while in motion.
  • • Integration of GPS technology for accurate location tracking.
  • • Utilization of an SSD1306 OLED display for a clear and intuitive interface.
  • • Incorporation of a micro SD card slot for efficient data storage.
  • • User-friendly controls include FLASH, RESET, and navigation buttons.
  • • Comprehensive hardware setup including SMD components, lithium battery, and USB Female Type C Connector.

In this project, there is a small character displayed on the screen that changes based on the number of Wi-Fi networks detected. Additionally, two icons display the number of available satellites and available Wi-Fi networks in the area.

• When the number of available WiFi networks is zero, the following character personality will be displayed.

• In cases where there are between 10-20 available WiFi, the following character personality will be displayed.

• the following character personality will be displayed when we have 21-30 available WiFi.

• and 31- 40 available WiFi.

When we hold the navigation button, the available WiFi networks, along with their channel number and encryption type, become visible.
