HyperOS Development
The Chinese technology giant Xiaomi does not stand still in the development of its mobile operating system HyperOS. According to information from reliable sources, the company is preparing to introduce an updated version of HyperOS 2.0, which will delight users with a number of new features.
Unique security feature
A key innovation will be a tool for detecting hidden cameras using smartphones. This technology will allow compatible Xiaomi devices to detect camouflaged cameras by analyzing Wi-Fi network signals.
Owners of Xiaomi gadgets will be able to identify suspicious devices, assuming that the cameras themselves are connected to a local wireless network. Screenshots of this function have already appeared on the Internet, on one of which you can read: “Detect hidden cameras to protect your privacy and personal security.”
Ease of use
Judging by the published images, the scanning process will be simplified as much as possible. Users will only need to click the "Start Scan" button and wait for the scan to complete. The results will show whether hidden cameras were detected in the surroundings.
Origins of Inspiration
It's interesting to note that this new privacy feature in HyperOS 2.0 appears to have taken inspiration from earlier created a Python application called Ingram. The tool identifies camera vulnerabilities by examining IP addresses and includes capabilities such as signal strength analysis, SSID translation, MAC address identification, and network traffic monitoring.
Expected launch
This security feature will be especially useful for travelers who change locations frequently. It is assumed that the release of HyperOS 2.0 will take place in October of this year.

Wow, sounds pretty cool! 🕵️♀️ Finally, it will be possible not to be paranoid in hotels and rented apartments. I wonder how accurately this feature will work?
Hans
Yes, Isabella, this is a really useful feature. Especially for those who travel frequently. But I'm concerned about privacy - will this feature be used to spy on others?
Pierre
I agree with Hans, the issue of privacy is very important. But still, I think there are more advantages. Imagine how this can help you stay safe in unfamiliar places! 🏨
Sofia
Guys, don't you think this can lead to paranoia? 😅 What if we start looking for cameras everywhere? Although, on the other hand, it is better to be safe...
Giovanni
Oh, these newfangled things! Previously, we lived quietly without any scanners, and nothing. Now everyone will shy away from their own shadow. Nonsense.
Anna
Giovanni, I understand your concern, but technology does not stand still. This feature can really help people feel safe. Is it bad? 🤔
Maksym
I wonder how this feature will work with cameras that are not connected to Wi-Fi? 🤓 There are battery-powered autonomous cameras. Have Xiaomi thought about this?
Isabella
Maksym raised an excellent question! 👍 It would be great if Xiaomi expanded the capabilities of this feature. In general, I'm already waiting for October to try HyperOS 2.0 in action! 🎉
