This is the story of Hacking the Omnipod, worthy of the front page of Wired.
What an amazing story, and with so many incredible details along the way.
The proprietary technique for reading contents of the locked chip is pretty fascinating in the context of Secure Enclave...
The reverse engineering efforts were stymied for months by a bug in Omnipod’s CRC calculation!
The perseverence in bringing this all to fruition is one of the best things I’ve woken up to on HN in a long while.
Both my kids have T1D and use Omnipods. I’ve been looking forward to this for years.
EDIT: Is it just me, or is a bad title significantly holding back this post? This story is worth way more than 23 points in 5 hours.
- GiorgioG 8y agoHave you looked @ Tandem's upcoming (2nd half of this year) ControlIQ for their X2 pump? It probably won't be as user-tweakable as OpenAPS. I couldn't convince myself to try OpenAPS for my 7 year old T1D. He recently switched to a Tandem pump and we are eagerly awaiting this software update.
- beached_whale 8y agoThis is more Loop. Does OpenAPS work with RileyLink and Omnipod now?
