BSides Brisbane 2026 Electronic Badge

Post-event electronic badge record for the Time Travel edition

BSides Brisbane 2026 is represented by a post-event electronic-badge record: the official prospectus offered electronic badge design/build for 500 delegates, Humanitix marked the July 4 event passed while listing conference-badge and VIP special-badge pickup, and BSides Brisbane's public LinkedIn updates named BLARGE as the electronic-badge supporter.

Why It Mattered

It extends Queensland coverage with a source-backed event-day badge pickup and supporter trail, while still keeping component, firmware, repository, and challenge claims open until artifact-level sources appear.

Hardware

An Electronic Badge sponsorship item described as electronic badge design and build for 500 delegates is documented in the official prospectus, and a public BSides Brisbane update thanks BLARGE for the electronic badge. The recovered sources do not yet identify the PCB, processor, display, battery, radio, enclosure, or production files.

Software & Apps

No 2026 firmware, app, CTF integration, or repository has been recovered. The public event page advertises CTF, IoT, and hardware-hacking programming, but this badge record does not assign software behavior to the badge without release evidence.

Lore

The 2026 theme was Time Travel, with the July 4 event at QUT Gardens Point Campus. Humanitix now marks the event passed; BSides Brisbane's event-day update told attendees that check-in was open and to grab their badge and shirt before the opening.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

missing rights-cleared image note

No local BSides Brisbane 2026 badge image is published because no completed badge photo or upstream render with exact reuse rights, attribution, and processing notes has been recovered.

The post-event record remains image-free rather than publishing theme art, sponsor-page media, LinkedIn media, screenshots, or generated badge imagery.

Confidence: local project policy
Status: needs licensed original replacement
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: badge.gallery image policy and BSides Brisbane source pages.

post-event technical archive gap note

The July 4, 2026 event has passed and public updates support badge pickup plus BLARGE electronic-badge support, but no final schematic, BOM, PCB file, firmware repository, component list, badge-team writeup, or teardown has been recovered.

The catalogue can treat the badge as post-event source-backed while still avoiding unsupported processor, display, radio, battery, firmware, and CTF-behavior claims.

Confidence: official and public social sources
Status: needs artifact-level source
Timeframe: post-event recheck on 2026-07-07
Source note: BSides Brisbane 2026 prospectus, Humanitix ticketing, and LinkedIn updates.

prospectus-to-artifact boundary note

The recovered sources document electronic badge design/build scope for 500 delegates and public BLARGE support, but not the actual physical implementation.

The entry keeps component-level fields empty until official post-event or repository evidence supports them.

Confidence: source-backed but incomplete
Status: documented caveat
Timeframe: post-event 2026 source pass
Source note: BSides Brisbane 2026 prospectus, ticketing page, and LinkedIn updates.
