CamSweep is an Android application, a tool designed to help users identify hidden cameras and other surveillance devices in their surroundings. It is possible to identify magnetic fields, noises, IR signals, and data transfers.
Main opportunities
The app uses advanced technology to detect hidden cameras by scanning the environment. It is possible to detect infrared signals that many covert cameras can emit. It is worth noting that your smartphone has to be equipped with an IR port, similar to Roku remote.
Another significant feature is the magnetic field detection capability. The utility can identify electronic devices that generate magnetic fields, such as hidden cameras and microphones, by using the device’s built-in sensors. The Lens Finder option allows users to locate hidden camera lenses by scanning surfaces for reflections.
Additional options
Moreover, the utility includes a noise detection feature that can identify sounds typical of surveillance gadgets, such as clicking or whirring noises. It is possible to scan your Wi-Fi network for the presence of third-party devices transmitting information. Also, you can determine whether data is being transferred via Bluetooth as well.
