Unknown Security Conference 2026 Pwn Llama Badge

CH573F BLE virtual-pet and CTF electronic badge

A source-backed Peruvian Unknown Security Conference 2026 electronic-badge record that joins the official pass's lanyard-and-badge inclusion with Electronic Cats' self-described official Pwn Llama badge repository. Its public history shows hardware work before the June 4-6 Lima event and a July documentation update.

Why It Mattered

It upgrades a pass-only identity-artifact record to a public electronic-badge dossier while preserving the stable route and keeping the repository-association, delivery, and image-evidence limits explicit.

Hardware

Electronic Cats documents a CH573F QFN28 RISC-V/BLE 4.2 board with embedded PCB antenna, a 0.96-inch 128x64 SSD1306 OLED, WS2812B RGB LED, LTR-303ALS-01 light sensor, four directional buttons, USB-C, battery/LiPo connection, 3.3 V regulation, clock crystals, WCH-LinkE SWD, and KiCad 9 schematic, PCB, and footprint sources. This describes the public design, not a final shipped-unit BOM or safety certification.

Software & Apps

The repository says the badge runs the PwnPet virtual-pet framework over BLE, with persistent state, peer or friend interactions, and integrated CTF challenges. It identifies this variant as Pwn Llama; no operational instructions, challenge solutions, per-unit provisioning, or production-firmware release is claimed here.

Lore

UnknownCon's official site places the June 4-6 event at Auditorio UTEC Barranco in Lima and includes a lanyard plus official badge in the free conference pass. The event site names Electronic Cats' CTO and co-founder as 2026 speakers, while the Electronic Cats repository describes itself as the official UnknownSecurity Conference 2026 badge archive; no direct organizer-to-repository link or confirmed recipient-delivery ledger was recovered.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

delivery and allocation boundary note

The official pass says it includes a lanyard plus official badge, while the public repository documents an electronic badge design. Neither source identifies final unit count, which pass holders received the electronic device, color or hardware variants, or completed distribution.

The badge is documented as a real event-specific electronic design without claiming universal attendee issue or any final delivery outcome.

hardware and firmware deployment boundary note

The public archive documents the design and PwnPet variant, but this pass does not verify a final manufactured BOM, assembly revision, per-unit configuration, production firmware release, or post-event support path.

Component-level and high-level runtime claims remain tied to the published archive rather than being represented as a final shipped-unit specification.

license scope boundary note

The README says the hardware is released under CERN Open Hardware Licence v1.2. That statement does not itself establish a separate license for firmware, documentation beyond the stated hardware scope, trademarks, or visual assets.

The record links the hardware source and license while avoiding overbroad reuse, firmware, trademark, or image-rights claims.

missing rights-cleared image note

No local Unknown Security Conference 2026 Pwn Llama badge image has been added because the public source trail does not provide one exact source image together with explicit visual reuse terms, attribution, and processing provenance. The repository's CERN OHL v1.2 statement is scoped to hardware documentation.

The record remains image-free and avoids placeholder or synthetic artwork despite a detailed public electronics archive.

official repository-association boundary note

Electronic Cats calls its repository the official UnknownSecurity Conference 2026 badge archive, and the event site names its CTO and co-founder as 2026 speakers. This pass did not recover a direct event-organizer link to the repository.

The catalogue can report the repository's own official-project claim and its corroborating event relationship without asserting an unproven publication path by the organizer.

radio, power, and data-use boundary note

The source documents BLE behavior, USB-C and battery/LiPo power options, and persistent device state, but it is not an electrical-safety certification, privacy notice, radio compliance record, or independent security assessment.

The catalogue records the documented capabilities without making safety, privacy, security, or regulatory claims.
