Could you build this?

No This is embedded camera firmware hacking (similar to Magic Lantern), requiring reverse engineering proprietary Nikon firmware binaries, microcontrollers, and low-level hardware memory maps.

What it would actually take: Development requires decompiling Nikon camera firmware images (ARM/MIPS/proprietary SoC architectures) using Ghidra or IDA Pro, identifying bootloaders, memory maps, and RTOS operating primitives (like ITRON). The developer must build custom payload injectors (often via SD card boot exploits) and write low-level C assembly drivers to interface directly with camera hardware buffers and registers without bricking the device.
