Could you build this?

No Developing custom firmware extensions and binary patches for a dedicated Nikon digital camera requires specialized embedded systems engineering and hardware reverse engineering.

What it would actually take: Requires Ghidra/IDA Pro disassembly of Nikon's proprietary camera firmware binary for ARM/proprietary microcontrollers, finding functional entry points, understanding checksum/cryptographic signing routines, and writing assembly-level hooks/payloads that maintain hardware timing and camera stability without bricking the device.
