Official documentation for Banshee device (ESP32-C5 display + ESP32-S3 compute)
Welcome to the Banshee documentation!
Banshee is a dual-SoC pentesting device featuring Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC (PN532/Chameleon Ultra), infrared TX/RX, USB keyboard support, wired Ethernet, GPS, SD card storage, and a color touchscreen display. It pairs an ESP32-C5 (display MCU) with an ESP32-S3 (compute/IO) linked over UART via GhostLink, running the GhostESP firmware for wireless security testing, NFC operations, and IoT exploration.
