Could you build this?
No This application requires low-level reverse engineering of proprietary DJI camera protocols over BLE, Wi-Fi Direct, PTP/IP, and UVC webcam streaming drivers natively on macOS.
What it would actually take: A functional clone requires reverse-engineering DJI's proprietary Wi-Fi handshake, BLE service UUIDs, and camera control APIs (or porting KonradIT's Osmosis packet captures into Swift/Objective-C). It demands macOS CoreBluetooth, Network.framework, and CoreMediaIO DAL plugin development to handle real-time RTSP/UVC streaming and high-throughput resumable wireless file transfers.
