  • Reversing 2.4GHz Remote Control

    Wheni first stumbled across https://github.com/jopohl/urh (universal radio hacker) i couldn’t believe my luck.

    I’ve done stuff like this manually before (as in just collecting all the bits and then trying to ascribe meaning, e.g. https://github.com/cleanflight/cleanflight/issues/1125#issue... ) but i used URH to reverse my bbq temperature sensors.

    I have an alexa skill that shows the last 20 readings for both probes on a graph. It is stupidly over the top (a Pi with a cheap sdr dongle listens for packets from the bbq down the garden, it parses out the measurements and fires them into a dynamodb which is absurd but it was quick to do, then the Alexa skill just pulls from there and sends to a chart api that draws my line graphs to show on alex’s screen - totally absurd but great fun to do)

    This made it really easy to figure out how to interpret the packets from my wireless barbeque thermometer. Previously i used some monstrous excel for this kind of pattern finding, e.g. https://github.com/cleanflight/cleanflight/issues/1125#issue...

    In the end the bbq temp sensor turned out to be trivial, using rtl433 on a raspberry pi I just log the packets to a dynamo table and alexa (using google charts from a lambda) plots the last 20 points on screen.
