Why It Mattered
This adds a contemporary Mexican event artifact with a public source-design trail while keeping the maker's own official-badge description distinct from an organizer confirmation or attendee-allocation claim. It also preserves an unresolved AHT30-versus-AHT10 documentation discrepancy rather than silently selecting a sensor specification.
Hardware
The commit-pinned hardware README names an ESP32-C6, 2.79-inch 142×428 colour IPS display using NV3007, LoRa hardware, and AHT30; the repository tree contains native KiCad project, schematic, and PCB files. The companion firmware material instead names AHT10, and neither archive reconciles that difference. The reviewed sources do not establish a final BOM, populated production revision, battery or charging arrangement, antenna implementation, electrical or radio test result, regulatory status, safety assessment, or that every documented part appeared in every event unit.
Software & Apps
Electronic Cats' companion public archive describes custom TROPICON 2026 badge firmware and presents high-level event schedule, environmental-reading, and messaging surfaces. The catalogue records those documented software contexts without reproducing operational procedures. Public source availability and GitHub's GPL-3.0 classification do not establish a final deployed build, hardware/firmware parity, update policy, radio configuration, data-handling practice, security review, or completed event deployment.
Lore
TROPICON's official home identifies the April 17-18, 2026 Cozumel cybersecurity event. Electronic Cats labels its separate public hardware repository Badge Oficial Tropicon 2026; that is a maker-published description, not an organizer-page confirmation of sponsorship, admission inclusion, credential use, distribution, or final recipient handoff. No reviewed source supplies a rights-cleared artifact image.
commit-pinned hardware documentation
design source publicly documented
The hardware README names an ESP32-C6, a 2.79-inch 142×428 colour IPS NV3007 display, LoRa hardware, and AHT30; the archive contains native KiCad project, schematic, and PCB material. This retains a high-level documented design surface without asserting a final BOM, populated revision, power path, antenna, test result, safety assessment, or final unit configuration.

maker repository and event context
maker description; organizer association limited
Electronic Cats calls its public hardware project Badge Oficial Tropicon 2026, while TROPICON's official home establishes the completed Cozumel event. The event page does not itself link or independently confirm the repository, and neither source establishes ticket inclusion, quantity, price, pickup, delivery, admission use, or recipient handoff.

source and license boundary
public hardware and firmware archives
The hardware archive publishes native KiCad material with CERN Open Hardware Licence v1.2 text for hardware documentation, and GitHub marks the separate firmware archive GPL-3.0. These source and license findings do not automatically cover firmware deployment, repository graphics, event media, logos, trademarks, or local image publication.

AHT30/AHT10 sensor discrepancy and final-unit parity gap
note
The entry preserves both source statements and does not select a sensor, claim a final component list, or represent public design files as a verified production configuration.
