Why It Mattered

It marks RVAsec's post-pandemic public firmware return with a modernized build system and a simulator path for badge app development, while keeping unrecovered hardware manufacturing and image rights separate.

Hardware

The README and repository tree support Raspberry Pi Pico-style UF2 flashing, LCD display, three-color LED, D-pad, IR Tx/Rx, rotary encoder, badge hardware target, and simulator target. Audio output and audio/jack input are explicitly marked not implemented in the README status table.

Software & Apps

The repository documents CMake builds, ARM embedded GCC, simulator builds, off-target tests, Doxygen documentation, app templates, a serial CLI path, display buffers, core screensavers, and badge apps including Badge Monsters, Maze, Lunar Lander, Smashout, Spacetripper, Slot Machine, Cube, Game of Life, and Hacking Simulator.

Lore

The public tree is a HackRVA-maintained firmware archive for RVAsec Badge 2022. No repository license or complete physical-badge photo provenance was recovered, so the record stays image-free and license-caveated.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

missing rights-cleared image note

No 2022 RVAsec badge image is published because no specific physical photo or full official render with reusable license or permission basis, attribution, source URL, and processing notes was recovered.

The record remains image-free.

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

missing rights-cleared image note

No RVAsec 2022 Badge image is published because the current public source trail has not been paired with a reusable original badge or artifact photo or official upstream raster render with source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes.

The United States record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.

Confidence: local project policy
Status: needs licensed original replacement
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: badge.gallery image policy and RVAsec 2022 badge source trail.

repository-license caveat note

The public badge2022 repository exposes firmware and documentation but no visible top-level repository license in GitHub metadata during this pass.

The source is used as evidence, but repository images or documentation media are not republished as catalogue images.

Confidence: GitHub metadata
Status: open
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: GitHub repository metadata and source audit.
