deviceOwl

Discover Device Potential deviceOwl is an AI “point-and-shoot” hardware device scanner that helps you identify the make and model of covert spy devices, and popular household smart devices, revealing their sensory capabilities, and their privacy implications. Covert spy devices (covert consumer surveillance devices) are cameras and microphones disguised as other trusted household objects. They have far more serious implications, because they can be well disguised, highly reliable, and are widely available for purchase on major online shopping sites. These devices have a history of being abused in rental properties, hotel rooms, home stays, conference rooms, and public areas to surreptitiously monitor the activities of individuals, and erode their privacy. Household smart devices can enhance the convenience and peace of mind we have at home, but sometimes at a cost of privacy and security. With an eye towards privacy, deviceOwl helps you quickly identify these devices, providing both simple, and in-depth details about their capabilities. Simply point your smartphone at a device, and let deviceOwl intelligently check it, based on it's knowledge of thousands of devices. If a device is recognized, deviceOwl provides details about the device's capabilities, helping you to make the right decisions about how to protect your privacy, and the privacy of the people you care about. Information includes make, model, sensors, network, storage, power, remote control, AI capabilities, and manufacturer information, including origin, parent companies, privacy policy, and the current government blacklist status of the manufacturer.
