Drone Hijacking
The document outlines a project aimed at using drones to hijack and retrieve out-of-reach drones back to base. It details the components and initial steps involved in controlling and managing the communication of the drones, as well as the problems faced, such as network bypassing and port limitations. A demo of the completed process is also mentioned.

- 2. Outline • Our objective •Reasons behind our objective • Components used • Initial steps • Drone control • Video stream • Communications • Hijacking • Complete process • Problems faced • Demo
- 3. Our objective To useour drone to “hack” out-of-reach drones to rescue and retrieve them back to base
- 4. Reasons behind ourobjective
- 5.
- 6. Initial steps • Searchedhow to hijack wireless network • Searched how to control on wireless network • Searched for limitations that will be encountered
- 7. Controlling the drone •Use a python library to control the drone from panda • Connecting the panda to AUC network to control the drone remotely • Create any number of instances to control the hijacked drone remotely
- 8. Video streaming • ConnectingAUC network • Creating a relay socket on the Pandaboard • Using the official Ardrone C++ SDK
- 9. Communications • PC connectsto Pandaboard via: • Wifi adapter 1 – controls our drone • Wifi adapter 2 – controls hijacked drone • Wifi adapter 3 – to hijack (we’re trying to combine this with 2) • Wifi adapter 4- connect to AUC network to relay video
- 10. Hijacking • Installed Aircracklibrary • Compatibility with wireless drivers
- 11.
- 12. Problems faced • Bypassingthe AUC network, LAN network, and wireless network: • we had to analyze how it works, and then wrote a python script to solve this problem • Bypassed wireless using application called WPA supplicant • Device drivers: • Patched device driver and installed it on Pandaboard • We used wireless devices from the same vendor (so it is driver compatible) • Same IP class for the two drones: • Connected to the drone box and changed our drones IP class • Using minimum number of wifi adapters
- 13. Problems faced continued •AR DRONE HAS 4 PORTS: • 2 For Controlling the drone • 1 for Navigation data • 1 for video streaming • Issue due to 4 PORTS: • We had to tweak the python library so it works only on the control ports, when it used all 4 we couldn’t do the streaming. • We also then tweaked the C++ SDK to do the video streaming separately.
