pre-event public firmware-development source
A December 13 SEAL-Embedded snapshot frames a Raspberry Pi Pico W BLE interest-matching project as an IEEE Rising Stars Conference badge and includes `aioble` advertising/scanning code. A later repository README describes an ESP32 redesign, not an event-unit release.

official badge documentation
Primary post-event conference source for the 2026 badge project's bare-PCB attendee allocation, approximately five manually assembled advanced prototypes, assembly guidance, schematic/BOM links, CircuitPython prototype note, PCBWay support, and named badge-design lead.

public post-event project documentation
Immutable July 27, 2026 repository README that self-identifies a newer ESP32-WROOM-32 networking-badge iteration as 2026 work and describes its BLE design. It is retained for source-history context, not as proof of the January event units, final hardware, deployment, or organizer endorsement.

public pre-event firmware-development snapshot
Immutable December 13, 2025 SEAL-Embedded snapshot. Its README calls the work an IEEE Rising Stars Conference networking badge using Raspberry Pi Pico W BLE, and its tree contains `aioble` advertising/scanning source. The official Badge Project page does not identify this repository or link it to a physical 2026 prototype.

Primary post-event source stating that all attendees received bare PCBs with no components, about five manually assembled advanced badges were prototyped, and full automated assembly was not achieved. It also documents the manual-assembly constraints, linked schematic/BOM, CircuitPython prototype note, PCBWay sponsorship, and Badge Design Lead credit.

July 27, 2026 project documentation that calls an ESP32-WROOM-32 version the 2026 IEEE Rising Stars Networking Badge and says it followed testing of an earlier Pico W path. Its later date and lack of organizer linkage prevent it from identifying event-delivered hardware or firmware.

Immutable December 13, 2025 source snapshot, published before the January conference. Its own README frames the work as an IEEE Rising Stars Conference BLE networking badge targeted at Raspberry Pi Pico W, and the repository contains MicroPython `aioble` source. It is primary development evidence but is not organizer-linked and does not establish that it ran on any of the approximately five advanced 2026 prototypes.
