Add-on dossier
A linkable lifecycle record for hardware expansions, app ecosystems, firmware upgrades, cases, radio parts, and post-event badge experiments.
The project describes a mini prototyping area with 3.3 V rail, battery rail, and PSoC4 I/O broken out so attendees could add their own components.
Badge context
Primary project source for the PSoC4, ESP8266, WS2812B, mini prototyping area, exposed rails/I/O, team, and Wi-Fi working-before-event claims.
Conference archive source for the May 28-29, 2016 Sheraton Gateway LAX, Los Angeles LayerOne event context.
Project log source for PCB arrival, Eagle design, reverse-protection diode, level-shifter debugging, daisy-chain tests, ESP8266 power/noise fixes, Wi-Fi control, planned firmware-update station, and pre-build intent.
