Xiaomi is implementing a tool that will help everyone.

Xiaomi continues to improve its HyperOS operating system, which was first introduced last year. An updated version of HyperOS 2.0 is expected to be released soon. According to a recent report from XiaomiTime, one of the key features of the new update may be a feature that allows you to detect hidden cameras.

It is assumed that the new function will have a simple interface that requires the user to only press one button to start scanning. After clicking on the scan button, a message will appear on the screen: "Detect hidden cameras to protect your privacy and security." This approach makes the feature accessible to a wide audience, including those who do not have technical skills. In real-world conditions, the effectiveness of this tool has yet to be evaluated, but its implementation indicates Xiaomi's desire to increase the level of protection of users personal data.

The new "Camera Scan" feature is a significant step forward in mobile technology. Although technical details have not yet been disclosed, it is assumed that it uses search methods over the WLAN, similar to the Ingram program available on GitHub. This innovation can become the standard for privacy-oriented features, especially in the face of increasing concerns about the security of personal data.

HyperOS 2.0 is expected to launch in October 2024, coinciding with the first anniversary of HyperOS 1.0. Among other innovations, it is worth noting improved device performance, improved interaction between Xiaomi devices and more opportunities for personalization. These improvements are aimed at creating a more user-friendly and efficient experience.

However, questions remain about how effective the "Camera Scan" feature will be in real-world settings. Using Wi-Fi signals can face a number of problems, such as obstacles in the form of walls and furniture, which can reduce the accuracy of detection. In addition, the presence of other electronic devices that use the same frequency bands can cause interference and make it difficult to recognize hidden cameras.

Device placement also plays an important role: if the camera is hidden in a hard-to-reach location, it may not be detected by WLAN signals. This is especially true for large rooms with many nooks and crannies, where the signal may not pass through properly. The reliability of the function will depend on how sensitive and accurate it turns out to be, especially given modern technologies that allow you to create cameras disguised as ordinary objects.
