DEF CON 34 · 2026

UPDeeDeeI SAO (DEF CON 34)

Sold-out pre-event Lepi Labs UPDI-programmer moth Simple Add-On for DEF CON 34

Lepi Labs' own Uberflux listing identifies UPDeeDeeI as a DEF CON 34-drop moth Simple Add-On. Its August 4, 2026 marketplace state is out of stock, with seven sold, zero remaining, and a $35 listed price. The maker says a CH340E USB-to-serial converter supports UPDI programming of compatible ATtiny devices, names an onboard ATtiny814 with two RGB LED eyes, and describes USB-C plus a flexible FPC tongue used as a functional USB cable. It also claims configurable 3.3 V or 5 V UPDI voltage, SAO or included CR2032 power, and v1.1 pre-event corrections including an FPC power fuse. Lepi Labs' first-hand DC34 announcement corroborates planned Friday and Saturday BadgeLife Village drops. This is a source-backed pre-event independent programming-tool SAO, not proof of final board revision, safe programming configuration, USB/FPC durability, compatible target coverage, delivery, host compatibility, DEF CON organizer affiliation, conference admission, or reusable-image rights.

Unknown Security Conference 2026 · 2026

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.

DEF CON 34 · 2026

Volatile Organic Canary SAO (DEF CON 34)

Sold-out pre-event Lepi Labs novelty VOC-indicator Simple Add-On for DEF CON 34

Lepi Labs' own Uberflux listing identifies the Volatile Organic Canary as a DEF CON 34-drop Simple Add-On. Its August 4, 2026 marketplace state is out of stock, with 11 sold, zero remaining, and a $45 listed price. The product describes an SGP40 VOC sensor plus SHT4x temperature/humidity sensor, a two-character fourteen-segment display, RGB LED, ATtiny1616-S controller, UPDI reprogramming, SAO or included CR2032 power, and a lanyard clip. Its maker explicitly says the device is novelty-only and must not be relied on for accurate air-quality measurements; it also records a ten-minute VOC-index warmup and a v1.0 board-order/remediation plan. Lepi Labs' first-hand DC34 announcement corroborates planned Friday and Saturday BadgeLife Village drops. This is a source-backed pre-event independent sensor SAO, not proof of final manufactured hardware, sold orders, safe or accurate air-quality measurement, delivery, host compatibility, DEF CON organizer affiliation, conference admission, or reusable-image rights.

Whose Slide Is It Anyway? 10 Year Anniversary Badge

Pre-event ESP32-C3 commemorative badge for Whose Slide's tenth DEF CON year

Whose Slide Is It Anyway?'s maker storefront offers a $75 10 Year Anniversary Badge and says it is limited to 100 units. The listing describes an ESP32-C3, 24 RGB LEDs, three pre-programmed sound effects with corresponding light shows, and a silkscreen replication of its Whose Slide gong artwork. Its public Shopify product payload currently marks the only variant unavailable; that is an availability snapshot, not evidence that all 100 were made, sold, shipped, or collected. The maker says buyers may arrange DEF CON pickup this year or shipment by early August. The current public DC34 contest listing describes 2026 as the contest's tenth year, and the public DC34 BadgeLife index separately lists this artifact. This is a source-backed independent pre-event commemorative badge record, not proof of final production, final firmware/board revision, completed charity distribution, official DEF CON affiliation, conference admission, or reusable-image rights.

Women's International Cybersecurity Challenge 2026 CTF Badge: Maker-documented ESP CTF challenge badge

Women's International Cybersecurity Challenge 2026 · 2026

Women's International Cybersecurity Challenge 2026 CTF Badge

Maker-documented ESP CTF challenge badge

A public maker archive explicitly titled Women's International Cybersecurity Challenge Badge 2026 links itself to WICC and documents a hackable serial-CLI CTF badge with ESP8266 and ESP32 target trees, challenge activities, a two-part protective case, and a repository photo of a physical cased device. WICC's official site and Cyber Ireland's post-event recap confirm the completed July 9-10 Dublin competition, but neither organizer source names this exact project. TOG separately reports building 15 ESP8266 hardware flags for the same CTF without identifying them as this archive, so this is a maker-documented event-linked electronic badge—not an organizer-issued credential, general attendee badge, or claim of equivalence to the flags.

WomenCon 2026 · 2026

WomenCon 2026 Digital Morpher Badge

Included interactive Electronic Cats badge with AAA-powered screens

WomenCon's public ticket posts describe the Digital Morpher as an interactive, collectible electronic badge designed and developed by Electronic Cats and included with admission. An IQSEC-host-linked public update told attendees to bring their own AAA batteries to power its screens and announced registration kit handoff; a post-event WomenCon source statement says Electronic Cats badges functioned during live hardware hacking. No component, firmware, or reusable-image archive is published.

DEF CON 34 · 2026

Wordweaving Badge (DEF CON 34)

Pre-event RP2350 CTF-adventure BadgeLife badge for DEF CON 34

BigTaro's own Wordweaving Badge project page and live Uberflux listing describe an independent DEF CON 34 top-down adventure / CTF badge. The current maker payload shows a $120 100-unit presale with 41 sold, DC34 pickup, and post-con shipping; it also says the badge would be $140 at the maker-described Hacker Warehouse booth during the conference. The maker describes an RP2350 with 4 MB flash, 16 RGB addressable LEDs, a 128×128 grayscale display, rechargeable LiPo via USB-C, and a fully addressable SAO port. It publishes game, CTF, multiplayer, word-building, and optional-component claims, but says hardware documentation and a stub firmware will only be provided after the conference. The project page says 30-plus CTF puzzles while the live listing says 35-plus, so the record preserves a broad maker-described challenge surface rather than resolving the discrepancy. This is a source-backed pre-event independent badge, not proof of final hardware/firmware, shipment or pickup, game availability, CTF completion, venue authorization, DEF CON affiliation, conference admission, or reusable-image rights.

Workday DevCon 2026 · 2026

Workday DevCon 2026 Blinky 2350 Badge

Post-event Pimoroni Blinky 2350 developer-conference badge; organizer allocation unverified

A public post-event app archive by Mainak Sarkar identifies a Pimoroni Blinky 2350 badge as handed out at Workday DevCon 2026 and says it ran the badgeware MicroPython operating system and app launcher. Workday's official pages establish the completed June 1-4 Las Vegas developer conference, but do not directly document badge issuance, recipient allocation, custom hardware, event firmware, or image rights. This is therefore a source-backed event badge record with intentionally limited organizer attribution.

cackalackycon 2026 · 2026

cackalackycon 2026 Speaker Electronic Badge

Speaker-colored electronic admission badge; allocation evidence is limited

Cackalackycon 2026's organizer-provided Call for Papers promises every selected speaker a speaker-colored electronic badge and free admission. It separately gives the speaker one paper-badge guest admission, noting that a guest who wants an electronic badge must purchase a ticket. The organizer-linked ticket page also markets a 2026 electronic badge, and post-event organizer and badge-team reports corroborate that badges were made and handed out. This record therefore captures a source-backed speaker electronic-badge allocation, not a universal attendee or technical claim.

cackalackycon 2026 · 2026

cackalackycon 2026 Student Paper Badge

Student-admission paper identity artifact; explicitly not electronic

Cackalackycon 2026's official event and Cackalackycon 101 pages say students with a valid student ID can attend for free with a paper badge, no electronic badge, and no preregistration. This record models that explicitly disclosed student identity artifact only; related speaker electronic-badge evidence is kept in a separate, scoped record rather than becoming a student hardware claim.

h-c0n 2026 · 2026

h-c0n 2026 CTF BADge

Madrid Hackplayers electronic development-board CTF badge

A source-backed Spanish hacker-conference electronic badge record: the official h-c0n post says Hackplayers finally produced an electronic badge for the sixth 2026 edition, describes it as a fully functional development board, and ties pickup to the February 6 conference registration and CTF start; the public `therealdreg/hcon2026hwctf` repository and Hackplayers post-event write-up document RP2350/RISC-V firmware, tooling, named co-creators, and winner write-ups.

DEF CON 34 · 2026

iFixit SAO (DEF CON 34)

Maker-documented ATtiny1604 soldering-challenge Simple Add-On

NerdFlare's public repository describes a 2026 iFixit Shitty Add On (SAO), while its repository description labels the project an iFixit DEFCON 2026 SAO. The commit-pinned README documents a physical PCB art badge with multiple LED animations, an interactive surface-mount soldering challenge, user-programmable firmware, an ATtiny1604-SS target, PlatformIO/Arduino code, and KiCad design files. A dated July 18 source commit says "Version 0.1 - FINAL: art, code, and PCB. 1000 made for DEFCON34." Those are direct project-publisher statements sufficient to retain a distinct pre-event DEF CON 34 artifact, but not proof of organizer issuance, iFixit corporate publication, event authorization, attendee allocation, actual handoff, admission function, a final unit-by-unit configuration, or reusable-image rights.

leHACK 2026 Badge Hackropole: Open ESP32-S3 capacitive light-up workshop badge

leHACK 2026 · 2026

leHACK 2026 Badge Hackropole

Open ESP32-S3 capacitive light-up workshop badge

leHACK's official 2026 workshop schedule and the French National Cybersecurity Agency's leHACK listing present Badge Hackropole as a novice-accessible workshop in which participants assemble a capacitive light-up badge, solder a microcontroller and eight SMD LEDs, and program preconfigured WLED firmware. FCSC-FR's public hackropole-badge repository supplies the PCB source, assembly instructions, firmware binaries/configuration, and per-file licensing. The programme lists ten 55-minute workshop sessions across June 26-27, but the source trail does not prove final attendance, completed builds, or a conference-wide handout.

x33fcon 2026 · 2026

x33fcon 2026 Conference Badge

Polish conference-floor identity badge

A conservative x33fcon 2026 identity-artifact record: the official conference page documents the June 11-12, 2026 Gdynia edition and currently says registration is closed at full capacity, while the terms require all people on the conference floor to have a visible badge at all times. The official afterparty instructions separately tell attendees to bring a physical x33fcon ID or ticket to enter either venue.

39th Chaos Communication Congress · 2025

39C3 Critical Decentralization Cluster Badge

Open-hardware ESP32-S3 / TROPIC01 assembly badge and devboard

The Critical Decentralization Cluster's CDC Badge was presented as an electronic conference badge and development board at the completed 39th Chaos Communication Congress. The source-backed open-hardware platform combines an ESP32-S3, TROPIC01 secure element, front-lit e-paper display, twelve-button keypad, LiPo power path, and expansion ports, while public sources do not establish a conference-wide or admission-badge allocation.

BSides Adelaide 2025 · 2025

BSides Adelaide 2025 Wombat-2 CTF Badge

Standalone binary-entry CTF badge with tactile buttons, LEDs, and hidden hardware challenge

BSides Adelaide 2025's second Wombat badge is source-backed by Hackerware, Hackster, and attendee challenge analysis: it kept the MS51FB9AE/CR2032 LED badge line but added onboard CTF controls, seven official challenge LEDs, binary flag entry, and an unannounced hardware challenge.

BSides Agra 2025 · 2025

BSides Agra 2025 IOTSRG Badge

Indian Security BSides badge-sponsor and soldering-village record

A conservative source-backed BSides Agra 2025 badge record from the archived official site and official social trail, documenting an IOTSRG Badge Sponsor role, all-attendee collectible-badge framing, and a hands-on soldering village without asserting an unrecovered final circuit.

BSides Bournemouth 2025 · 2025

BSides Bournemouth 2025 Skull Badge

ATtiny402 skull PCB badge

A completed BSides Bournemouth 2025 electronic PCB badge created by the event's badge sponsor, Punk Security. BSides Bournemouth's official 2025 page establishes its Bournemouth 2600-led community cybersecurity conference and reports 200+ attendees; the Security BSides schedule records the August 16 date. Punk Security's own event page identifies it as badge sponsor and calls the artifact a Punk BSides skull badge, while its post-event repository identifies the Skull Badge and preserves EAGLE, Gerber, Arduino firmware, vector, and printed-art material. The archive names an ATtiny402, button, two CR2032 clips, and 5050 NeoPixel. The sources do not establish a production quantity, attendee allocation, individual handoff, final unit-by-unit configuration, safety validation, or reusable image provenance.

BSides Exeter 2025 · 2025

BSides Exeter 2025 Pirate Ship Badge

ATtiny402 pirate-ship badge with venue treasure-chest interaction

A completed BSides Exeter 2025 electronic PCB badge created by the event's badge sponsor, Punk Security. Organizer ticketing and Security BSides sources establish the April 26 conference at The Forum, University of Exeter; Punk Security's own event listing identifies it as badge sponsor. Its post-event public repository identifies the pirate-ship badge, says it was given out at BSides Exeter, preserves EAGLE, EasyEDA, Gerber, badge/chest firmware, and chest-model material, and describes a venue treasure-chest interaction for unlocking additional LED modes. The archive names an ATtiny402, button, CR2032 clip, and 5050 NeoPixel for the badge. The sources do not establish a production quantity, attendee allocation, individual handoff, final unit-by-unit configuration, chest count or deployment, safety validation, player outcome, or reusable image provenance.

BSides Fort Wayne 2025 · 2025

BSides Fort Wayne 2025 Badge

ESP32-WROVER MicroPython conference e-badge

BSides Fort Wayne 2025 had an electronic conference badge documented by a first-hand badge-team writeup and a public organization repository, with ESP32-WROVER hardware, dual SPI display headers, seven WS2812B LEDs, accelerometer, buzzer, LiPo charging, MicroPython firmware, and badge CTF challenge apps.

BSides Knoxville 2025 · 2025

BSides Knoxville 2025 Fox Pick ESP32-S3 Badge

Maker-documented ESP32-S3 electronic conference badge

BSides Knoxville's 2025 official guide says Fox Pick made the event badges. In a public post-event talk, a Fox Pick representative describes the resulting electronic badge as ESP32-S3 based, with Bluetooth Low Energy and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, an SSD1309 display, capacitive touch controls, USB-C, a CH340 USB-UART bridge, battery voltage monitoring and charging/protection circuitry, a NeoPixel status light, and exposed I/O pads. The talk says source code was made available through a QR-linked GitHub page, but this pass did not recover a direct repository URL.

BSides Kristiansand 2025 · 2025

BSides Kristiansand 2025 Sykt Badge

Norwegian Security BSides SolaSec duck-shaped CTF badge

A source-backed Norwegian Security BSides electronic badge record: Noroff's post-event report documents a custom SolaSec electronic duck badge with seven LED challenge indicators, the official recordings page preserves Caleb Davis's Sykt Badge talk, and Cryptax's CTF write-up documents RP2040/MicroPython behavior, USB serial access, Wi-Fi AP setup, and on-badge web challenges.

BSides Lisbon 2025 · 2025

BSides Lisbon 2025 Electronic Badge

Portuguese Security BSides electronic badge with badge-sponsor trail

A source-backed Portuguese Security BSides electronic-badge record: the official BSidesLisbon 2025 about page says the edition would have an electronic badge, the sponsors page lists a Badge Sponsor section for BitSight, and Eventbrite anchors the November 13-14, 2025 Auditorio FMD-UL conference.

BSides Newcastle 2025 · 2025

BSides Newcastle 2025 Space Badge

ATtiny412, NeoPixel, and Morse-code game PCB badge

A completed BSides Newcastle 2025 electronic PCB badge created by the event's badge sponsor, Punk Security. Punk Security's public repository identifies it as the Space Badge, preserves board, schematic, EasyEDA, Gerber, artwork, firmware, and venue-sign material, and describes a Morse-code game using signs placed around the venue. Its README names an ATtiny412, one button, CR2032 holder, and 5050 NeoPixel. The sources do not establish a production quantity, attendee allocation, individual handoff, final unit-by-unit configuration, safety validation, or reusable image provenance.

BSides Peoria 2025 · 2025

BSides Peoria 2025 HackTheBadge Challenge Badge

Maker-published one-off ESP32 badge-challenge device

A source-bounded independent BSides Peoria 2025 challenge-badge dossier. Technet8394's event-period public HackTheBadge README calls the work "My ESP32 code for the BSides Peoria Badge Challenge 2025." Its later source release documents an ESP32, a 240×320 ILI9341 TFT panel, two batteries, and wiring. BSides Peoria's official 2025 announcement establishes the October 25 Bradley University event, and its 2026 organizer retrospective says the prior edition drew nearly 350 people and had electronic badges. No reviewed organizer source links this specific maker project to a main attendee badge, official issuance, or completed handoff, so the catalogue keeps it as an independent event-associated challenge device.
