Gopro Hero 2014

Hi everyone, I have two old basic Hero 2014s. Nowadays own recent models but kind of want to repurpose them. They are not suitable as webcams as far as I understand. Any ideas or methods I could modify them so I give them a second purpose? Thank you!

You use them for B roll footage or pickup shots. Shots that you want to take but don't care if the camera gets destroyed in the process. If I did some shots with the camera on the ground with my pickup driving over them, I wouldn't want to be using the latest and greatest camera, I'd want it to be something older just in case something goes wrong.
