Smartlify

Smartlify is an android app based in the client-server paradigm that allows the user to control its own drone with our app, watching in real time the camera of the drone on the mobile screen and showing all the nearest Access Points sharing Wi-Fi using an attached Raspberry Pi on the drone

Gadgets

To create this application, the following gadgets were used:

• Parrot Minidrones Jett Jumping race drone
• Raspberry Pi 3 (Model B)
• Sony Xperia Z Android smartphone

Goals

Main goal is to be able to connect a mobile phone, a drone and a Raspberry Pi attached to the drone into a single WiFi network to provide communication between them and allow the Raspbery Pi that is dynamically moved thanks to the drone scan access points remotely.

Uses

The ability to scan networks remotely is useful to:

• Audit remote networks
• Find rogue (evil) Access Points remotely
• Find low-level signal spots remotely

Future uses

The following ideas can be implemented with more time and research, but using the same or more gadgets:

• Find low-level signal spots and let the drone move there to create a WiFi repeater nearer to the highest signal spot
• Track users that are using your wireless networks and make a map with them
• Automatically create a map with the access points in the floor

Use summary

Therefore with further work the application can be used by system administrators to remotely secure their buildings from unauthorized wireless networks while keeping track of their status, use and users.

Language and dependencies

Client and server modules to communicate the Raspberry Pi attached to the drone with the mobile application are coded in Python 3.4, using the following libraries: - netifaces - wifi

Android application

The Android app that controls the drone and displays the found wireless access points can be found here: Smartlify App</center>
