Making an inexpensive USB Mouse Jiggler, with slightly better USB Descriptor (PID, VID, Manufacturer)

Making a half-convincing USB Mouse Jiggler on the cheap

I object to USB Mouse Jigglers being £20-£30 on Amazon for something a microcontroller should be able to do with ease, in an unconfigurable/unknown state when it comes to how they describe themselves to the host machine.

We can do better, with a reprogrammable version for about £6.

There are existing guides to each part of this, and I've linked them inline. Here's a great one for people less familiar with Arduino, but this guide assumes basic knowledge of Arduino.

Drift HD Ghost - Technical Notes and Root

## Drift HD Ghost - Technical Notes and Root

Note: Please don't attempt anything here unless you are comfortable with the possibility of permanently damaging your camera. I also do not guarantee your camera is the same as mine - this is just for information and fun! It goes without saying that I take no responsibility for what you do with this information, and it will probably invalidate your warranty too.

It is reported that the firmware re-flash does not appear to disable the debug network on a Ghost S.

  • Most of this was found by simply running strings over publically available firmware and software, then searching around for anything interesting.
  • The camera runs on the Ambarella A5S chipset, which appears to run PrKERNEL (implementing uItron): http://www.esol.com/embedded/prkernelv4.html, then boots Linux as a process inside the uItron OS.
  • There's lots of references to BOSS in the firmware, presumably a codename for this chipset from Ambarella.
  • The code on the device-side is a very close im

Drift HD Ghost WiFi Application API

Drift HD Ghost WiFi Application API

See my technical notes here, which include how to get root on a Drift HD Ghost with no modifications to the unit.

The following is a list of URLs which might be handy if you connect your machine to the Drift HD Ghost's WiFi network.
