adacam

Liberating bees from the hive.

Toolkit for converting Hivemapper Bee (HDC-S) dashcams into AdaCam devices — feeding AdaMaps instead of Hivemapper/HERE.

Repos

  • adacam-api — Replacement for odc-api (Flask, lean, no CVE)
  • recon/ — Factory firmware baseline recon (HDC-S, firmware 5.7.88)
  • liberate.sh — One-shot liberation script (in progress)

Recon

Factory baseline captured from a fresh HDC-S unit (firmware v5.7.88, Intel ESE Yocto dunfell, kernel 5.10.32). Key findings documented in recon/recon_*.log.

Status

  • Factory recon baseline
  • adacam-api v0.1 (Sulkta-Coop/adacam-api)
  • liberate.sh
  • AP subnet reconfiguration (10.42.0.0/24)
  • Reverse tunnel to Rackham
  • Routing fixes (LTE metric, wlp1s0f0 conflict)
