THcon 2026 Badge

French ESP32-C6 B.A.D.G.E. with WiFi AP and BLE challenges

A French THcon 2026 official electronic badge documented by the official B.A.D.G.E. page as an ESP32-C6 board with a WiFi access point, an I2C OLED at address 0x3C, and two badge challenges built around a BLE padlock and a one-time-password flow, for the May 5-6, 2026 tenth edition in Toulouse.

Why It Mattered

It adds the Toulouse Hacking Convention to the French badge map with an official badge page and a documented ESP32-C6 challenge surface, while keeping schematic, BOM, and designer claims withheld until artifact-level sources appear.

Hardware

The official B.A.D.G.E. page documents an ESP32-C6 microcontroller, a WiFi access point branded Badge3000, and an I2C OLED display at address 0x3C. The exact OLED part and resolution, button count and layout, power source, and any SAO connector are not identified in the recovered sources, so this record does not invent those details.

Software & Apps

The official badge page documents two challenges: a BLE padlock interaction and a one-time-password flow. No public firmware or hardware design repository was recovered in this pass, so the record treats the challenge surface as officially documented but the firmware and design archive as unreleased.

Lore

THcon is the Toulouse Hacking Convention, and the 2026 tenth edition held conference talks May 5-6 at the Marthe Condat auditorium of Paul Sabatier University, with an on-site CTF on May 7 at ENSEEIHT and a rump session the same evening. The official site carries a dedicated B.A.D.G.E. page for the electronic badge.

Issues & Camp Impact

hardware-detail and archive gap note

The official badge page documents the ESP32-C6, Badge3000 WiFi AP, I2C OLED, and two challenges, but the exact OLED part and resolution, button count and layout, power source, SAO presence, and any public firmware or hardware design repository are not identified in the recovered sources.

The catalogue records the verified official badge surface without inventing component-level display, input, power, or design-archive details.

missing rights-cleared image note

No THcon 2026 badge image is published because no reusable original badge photo or official upstream raster render with source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes has been recovered.

The French record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying official site imagery, screenshots, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.
