dc34-bio USB-serial BIO utility

The public `bunnie/dc34-bio` README identifies a Python utility for loading a BIO program to a DC34 badge over USB serial, with documented SAO-I/O selection and clock configuration. It documents a user-side tooling path, not complete embedded firmware, final connector mapping, safe settings, a supported end-user workflow, or event-unit parity.

Badge: DEF CON 34 Badge

public design and firmware archive repository material published

MIT source repository with firmware, Gerbers, and enclosure STLs

The maker-linked Penzz-HM repository includes the Arduino sketch, ESP32-S3 build outputs, a Gerber archive, enclosure STL files, and a root MIT license. It supplies a practical preservation and modification trail, but does not establish a complete schematic/BOM, reproducible production build, release-to-device mapping, every-dependency license, image-reuse selection, support commitment, or warranty.

Badge: GigaGeiger Badge (DEF CON 33)

public firmware build and test surface public project documentation

Arduino and PlatformIO normal, demo, and factory-test profiles

The README documents Arduino-compatible firmware and PlatformIO profiles for normal, demo, and factory-test builds, including tests for LED order, orientation, and shake sensing. The code and documentation do not establish a public tagged event release, production test log, safe user modification path, support obligation, or actual configuration in an assembled badge.

Badge: FirstBuild / GE Appliances Washer/Dryer Badge (DEF CON 34)

public firmware-development and update documentation public branch and documentation; release and safe update outcome unverified

Public source tree and XMODEM bootloader context

The public documentation names exposed UART pins for an XMODEM bootloader and describes a rapidly developed codebase with some unresolved bugs, while the repository exposes current source/firmware material. It documents an implementation and update trail without reproducing flashing steps or claiming a tagged/reproducible firmware release, verified binary-to-board mapping, secure update, rollback/recovery package, support policy, or safe owner modification.

Badge: Agency Wand (DEF CON 34)

public technical and licensing archive repository material published

Published schematic and MIT software/documentation source trail

The FirstBuild repository publishes a schematic PDF, firmware tree, and MIT license for software and associated documentation. These sources establish a valuable design and software trail, but do not automatically cover credited artwork, photographs, trademarks, every third-party dependency, a final hardware manufacturing package, or a selected reusable badge image.

Badge: FirstBuild / GE Appliances Washer/Dryer Badge (DEF CON 34)

published hardware target current production target in project README

STM32G031F8P6, MXC6655XA, and eight-SK6805 production target

The README names an STM32G031F8P6 Cortex-M0+ controller, MXC6655XA I2C accelerometer, and eight SK6805SIDE-G-003 side-emitting RGB LEDs as the current production target. It is source-backed design intent, not proof that this exact hardware was manufactured, placed on every board, tested, or distributed.

Badge: FirstBuild / GE Appliances Washer/Dryer Badge (DEF CON 34)

radio/FPGA app historical

FPGA Morse 144MHz

The 144 MHz Morse app uses GPIO and FPGA behavior for a ham-radio-style badge experiment, broadening MCH2022 beyond ordinary MicroPython apps.

The commit-pinned README names an RP2040 microcontroller, MPU-6050 gyro/accelerometer module, thirty WS2812 RGB LEDs, and MicroPython. It does not establish a complete board design, exact component variants, power design, final manufactured revision, individual-unit functionality, performance, safety, or compatibility.

Badge: Cyb3rBytes404 Cyber-Cat Badge (DEF CON 34)

retrospective software provenance July 2026 release surface

Later public software-release timeline

The repository's public releases visible in the reviewed source pass are dated July 2026, after the 2024 event. They establish a later public software trail without identifying software installed on any 2024 unit or a current supported operating path.

Badge: Retia DEF CON 32 Badge

retrospective source-provenance record immutable source snapshot published after event

2024 source identity in a later DefconBadge2026 repository

Retia's current repository name says DefconBadge2026, but its metadata calls the project a Retia 2024 DEF CON badge and the immutable first source-release commit/README explicitly say 2024. This records the source conflict and 2024 provenance without treating the repository label as a 2026 event association.
