firmware and community outcome
The designer archive describes its Bop It firmware and says at least two people hacked badges Saturday night and showed four new games Sunday. The independent attendee README calls the original a Bop It-style game and documents a replacement project. The record preserves the outcome at a high level without reproducing game, programming, or modification instructions.

badge firmware source
Public source file for the badge's Bop It firmware context. It is linked as historical software evidence without reproducing modification or operating instructions.
Badge: Open Sauce 2026 Badge
independent attendee firmware archive
Public attendee repository describing a replacement firmware for the 2026 Open Sauce badge and a Saturday eyebrow-module handoff. It independently corroborates the physical badge and event hacking without being an organizer source.
Badge: Open Sauce 2026 Badge
independent attendee provenance record
Primary attendee account of the original Bop It-style firmware, badge designer Caleb mention, custom Arduino MKR Zero-based board, overnight replacement project, Sunday demonstration, and named Gerard Hudson collaboration.
Badge: Open Sauce 2026 Badge
native PCB source
Public native KiCad PCB file for the Bop It badge design. The file establishes a hardware archive without proving that every physical event unit exactly matched the current source file.
Badge: Open Sauce 2026 Badge
native schematic source
Public native KiCad schematic file for the Bop It badge design. It is a technical reference rather than a production, safety, or recipient-allocation record.
