St4ltk3r is a fork of the ESP8266-MAC-scanner project designed to transform your ESP8266 into a tracker for people and/or objects. It captures the MAC addresses of Access Points (APs) encountered by the ESP8266 and logs these values into a file using the LittleFS filesystem library.
Proof of Concept: https://youtu.be/JFFT1UxcxXc
- MAC Address Capture: Continuously scans and captures the MAC addresses of nearby Wi-Fi Access Points.
- Logging with LittleFS: Efficiently records captured MAC addresses into a file on the ESP8266's filesystem.
- Portable Tracking: Allows for tracking movement by logging which APs have been encountered over time.
- Easy Deployment: Simple to set up and deploy on any ESP8266 device.
-
Power on your ESP8266 device;
-
Verify that you have all required librabries:
-
Upload the .ino to your ESP8266 board;
-
The device will automatically start scanning for Wi-Fi APs and log the MAC addresses;
-
Access the logged data via the file stored on the ESP8266 using the Serial Monitor or UART;
-
In the "finder" directory, you have the script that find the latitude e longitude. Look the anoter readme file to understand the process;
