BSides Cheltenham 2024 UFO Badge
maker-published timeline plus explicit 2024 source archive
Punk Security UFO badge-sponsor association and date discrepancy
Punk Security's historical timeline identifies it as BSides Cheltenham's badge sponsor with UFO badges, while its source archive identifies the UFO Badge for BSides Cheltenham 2024. The timeline's rendered early-2023 timestamp conflicts with that explicit 2024 repository identity, so the record preserves both sources without inventing an exact event date, organizer confirmation, or universal allocation.
Hack Glasgow 2026 Attendee Name Badge
official 2026 FAQ; event completed
Organizer-described handle/name write-in field

Hat Village
pikesley's Hat Village app is listed as the official app of Hat Village at EMF 2026, showing that Tildagon app distribution is already carrying future village-specific software.
Operational history
Issues & Camp Impact
TiDAL
moderate
The TiDAL 3D Hatchery entry says the app requires a custom firmware build with extra framebuffer routines and a native 3D maths module.
Not every app-store entry runs on a stock badge; some represent firmware forks and deeper platform modifications.
EMF 2026 Spaceagon Badge
moderate
The official guide says firmware must be updated before installing the 2026 frontboard; otherwise the new buttons do not work, although the joystick can still be used to update. It also instructs owners to disconnect the battery by its connector rather than its wires and to use isopropyl alcohol to release the battery's glue dots.
Spaceagon is a maintainable upgrade path, but it is not a plug-and-forget accessory: a prospective owner needs to account for firmware state, frontboard disassembly, display and battery connectors, and the guide's physical handling steps.
TiLDA MK4
moderate
The MK4 wiki says firmware was substantially fixed and improved during and after EMF, resolving issues with call handling and apps; the firmware-update page also warns that updating wipes apps and settings.
MK4 needs lifecycle treatment because the shipped camp experience, app behavior, and post-event firmware state were not identical.
Tildagon
moderate
The hardware overview warns that eGPIO does not work in firmware v1.6.0, a concrete compatibility caveat for hexpansion or GPIO-dependent work.
Hardware add-ons and examples may depend on firmware version, so the badge needs lifecycle tracking rather than one-time hardware notes.
TiDAL
moderate
The Doom! Hatchery entry warns that running the app overwrites the unused OTA partition and that Hatchery could not host the compressed DOOM1.WAD because it was too large.
Some TiDAL apps changed device storage/update assumptions and required manual asset handling, so app-store links need per-app risk notes.
CyberThreat's site still hosts rich 2024 Secure Impact badge and walkthrough material, including hardware and firmware challenge evidence, while its 2026 pages give only high-level hackable-badge activity wording. No reviewed source says that Secure Impact, the ATmega1284P/FTDI design, the nine challenges, or any 2024 mechanics will return in 2026.
The catalogue preserves the 2024 technical dossier without silently carrying its components, creator, challenge count, software, or delivery model into the planned 2026 record.
The reviewed official sources publish feature, assembly, API, app, and model-link material, but this pass did not recover a complete, separately versioned 2026 package of final frontboard PCB layout, schematic, BOM, Gerbers, manufacturing files, firmware build/release instructions, and explicit license terms. The public base-platform software repository is therefore tracked as context rather than promoted to a complete Spaceagon release archive.
Readers can use the documented upgrade and programming surface without assuming full hardware reproducibility, a specific final firmware version, redistribution rights, or that any public moving branch precisely matches every 2026 shipped kit.
The repository names an ATtiny402, button, two CR2032 clips, and 5050 NeoPixel but says its listed parts are the same as a BSides Cheltenham 2024 badge reference. The reviewed sources do not establish an exact final Bournemouth 2025 BOM, component substitutions, battery brand/capacity, polarity/protection behavior, power budget, runtime, electrical limits, thermal result, assembly quality, manufacturing test plan, certification, compliance, or safe service outcome.
The record preserves a source-backed hardware outline and its reference-list limitation without treating it as a complete fabrication, repair, electrical-safety, or universal final-unit specification.
The maker archive says parts to complete badges were sold on the day and raised more than £300 for Mind, but it does not publish an organizer confirmation, campaign terms, payment or donation ledger, purchaser count, parts inventory, unit-to-purchaser mapping, completed assembly count, participant identities, recipient list, final badge distribution, or individual charity outcome. No assembly procedure is reproduced here.
The catalogue retains the source-reported charity context without turning it into a verified fundraising audit, universal attendee experience, exact manufacturing total, completed-badge count, or individual donation claim.
The maker archive says player-code signs were placed around the venue and preserves guide/sign material for the Morse-code game. It does not publish a player count, score or completion data, participant identities, prize policy, final game-state report, official event result, or ongoing service status.
The catalogue records the documented badge interaction without claiming a completed CTF, universal player participation, or any individual outcome.
44CON 2016 HIDIOT 0.7 Badge
warning
44CON warned that hardware faults could damage computers and recommended using a USB hub while connecting or programming the HIDIOT.
The badge page preserves the original safety context instead of presenting USB HID payload experimentation as risk-free.
The maker archive says a companion activity flyer was given out on the day, but it does not establish an organizer-approved activity, flyer contents, activity values, participant count, participation record, completion data, participant identities, prize policy, final result, current service status, or a safe/reproducible operating procedure. No codes, activity content, connection, or configuration directions are reproduced here.
The catalogue records the historical printed-material statement without exposing activity instructions or inferring universal participation, a completed challenge, individual outcomes, or current availability.
Tildagon
note
The MD Updater app-store entry describes a real Megadrive-interface firmware updater but currently lists a placeholder source repository URL.
The compendium keeps the app and author record while flagging that source-code provenance is weaker than other Tildagon app entries.
TiDAL
note
The TiDAL Hatchery still exposes app status labels such as working, in progress, unknown, and unusable, so individual app entries should be treated as living or historical software records rather than guaranteed polished releases.
The compendium records representative apps but keeps status and caveat language visible for users who may revive old TiDAL hardware.
TiLDA MK4
note
The Badge Store submission rules required general-audience, non-malicious apps, Code of Conduct compliance, unique app folders, metadata headers, validation, and pull requests; they also warned that others could improve submitted apps.
The app store was curated and collaborative rather than an anonymous binary upload service.
44CON 2025 RF Detector Badge
warning
The RF-detector path depends on configuring the MT3608 boost converter to 9 V before installing the RF module, and the README says JP1 is disconnected to prevent damage until voltage is confirmed.
The badge page preserves the original power-safety context for the AD8317 RF detector instead of presenting the module as a no-risk plug-in.
The official FAQ says a valid QR code is scanned on entry and separately says a handle or name may be written on a badge. It does not connect those statements or publish a badge barcode/QR, RFID/NFC, chip, firmware, app, protocol, identity system, data collection, privacy notice, retention, account linkage, CTF behavior, repository, or security review.
The entry does not turn the event's admission procedure into a technical feature, access-control claim, or data-handling claim about the attendee name badge.
The organizer sources establish the completed April 26 conference, Punk Security identifies itself as badge sponsor, and its archive says the Pirate Ship Badge was given out at BSides Exeter. The reviewed sources do not give a production count, ticket-tier eligibility, role allocation, recipient list, pickup/handoff record, replacement policy, or proof that all attendees received the badge.
The catalogue records a completed event-associated electronic badge without turning sponsorship or a broad maker distribution statement into a universal allocation claim.

The catalogue records a completed event-associated electronic badge without turning sponsorship or attendance evidence into a universal allocation claim.
TiLDA MK4
note
The wiki warns that some badges needed factory reset before showing the loading screen and that first software download might require reset retries.
The detail page should preserve first-boot and recovery behavior, not only final hardware specifications.
The maker archive describes a magnetic compass feature, ambient-interference limits, and an intentionally coarse bearing display. It does not publish a calibrated reference, test conditions, accuracy/error figures, per-unit calibration record, participant-use result, field-reliability report, or a claim that every supplied unit produced the same outcome.
The catalogue records a source-described interactive feature without turning it into navigation guidance, an accuracy assurance, or a universal user-experience claim.
EMF confirms that the July 2026 event is complete, and the official listing says all badges and components required on-site pickup and now displays the products as sold out. Neither source establishes production quantity, order count, individual collection, no-show handling, delivery, replacement, repair support, or a universal attendee allocation.
The catalogue records a completed event and a documented acquisition route without turning a sold-out post-event listing into a claim that every offered kit was manufactured, collected, or issued to all attendees.
CyberNorth establishes the October 7 Community Conference and Punk Security's source archive says the Compass Badge was given out to all attendees. The reviewed sources do not give an attendee count, production quantity, ticket-tier scope, named recipient list, pickup/handoff record, replacement policy, or proof of final physical-unit equality.
The catalogue preserves a completed conference-associated electronic badge without turning a maker's broad distribution statement into a recipient ledger or guaranteed universal entitlement.
The official package calls the item a Limited Edition Challenge Coin but does not identify its material, dimensions, weight, artwork, finish, edge, serialisation, manufacturer, manufacturing method, final quantity, physical configuration, or electronic capabilities.
The record is modeled as a planned conference token rather than as an electronic badge, a generic admission credential, or a specific finished coin unsupported by the organizer's page.
The README says at least one of the two control paths must be soldered: shield-only operation gives OLED mini-game behavior, while the recommended fuller experience uses the ESP32 Wemos D1 module and related support parts.
The record separates the minimal shield/display experience from the ESP32 and RF-detector build path instead of treating every configuration as identical.
OSHCamp 2023 Badge
note
Tasmota is documented as the default post-event firmware path, while deeper Arduino/example-code use should be treated as an extension path unless traced to a specific published build.
The catalogue avoids overstating app-store-like functionality for a badge whose public record is centered on Tasmota and open hardware files.
The official page proves hackable badges at CyberThreat 2024 and describes in-person delegate hands-on opportunities, but does not publish exact badge quantity, ticket-tier eligibility, or whether every on-site attendee received one.
The catalogue records the badge as a CyberThreat 2024 challenge artifact without inventing a universal distribution count.
SiNE
note
The clue list and badge behavior are preserved, but the wiki notes some details were only filled in after EMWave had passed and still left some answers to be added.
The hidden-beacon mechanic is source-backed, while exact participant gameplay reconstruction remains partial.
OSHCamp 2023 Badge
note
The badge design supported ESP8285 QFN and ESP-12 module population choices, a practical manufacturing and workshop tradeoff rather than one fixed public configuration.
The record names both options so readers do not infer every badge had the same radio-module build.
TiLDA
note
The wiki records multiple software/hardware bug and fix sections, reflecting the experimental nature of early EMF badge development.
Useful context for how much of later badge culture grew from visible, community-maintained troubleshooting.
The reviewed pages limit the explicit badge-pickup statement to the Student Pass and say that pass provides select event access on Thursday, December 10. They do not state a student recipient count, registration qualification outcome, whether other pass classes receive a comparable badge, a presentation/access-control role for this artifact, an issuer, pickup workflow, shipment, loss/replacement terms, receipt, or a completed delivery ledger.
The catalogue preserves the narrow official Student Pass evidence without treating it as a general-attendee badge, technical access credential, proof of individual eligibility, or proof that any badge has been collected.
The public repository explicitly calls this the UFO badge for BSides Cheltenham 2024 and says a companion flyer was given out on the day. Punk Security's historical timeline separately identifies it as badge sponsor with UFO badges, but its rendered timestamp is early 2023 and conflicts with the repository's 2024 identity. No organizer-side 2024 recap, exact date, venue confirmation, production count, ticket-tier eligibility, role allocation, recipient list, pickup/handoff record, replacement policy, or proof that all attendees received the badge was recovered in this pass.
The catalogue records a source-backed 2024 event artifact while making the timestamp conflict and all unsupported organizer, allocation, and handoff claims explicit.
The repository names an ATtiny402, button, CR2032 clip, and 5050 NeoPixel for the badge and preserves separately named companion source/model material, but reviewed sources do not establish final component substitutions, battery brand/capacity, power budget, electrical limits, production revision, chest count, companion configuration, field placement, assembly quality, manufacturing test plan, certification, compliance, or safe service outcome.
The record preserves source-backed badge and companion context without treating public project material as a fabrication, repair, deployment, electrical-safety, or universal final-unit specification.
The repository names an ATtiny402, button, CR2032 clip, NeoPixel, and 3528 blue LED and preserves board/design material, but reviewed sources do not establish final component substitutions, battery brand/capacity, polarity/protection behavior, power budget, runtime, electrical limits, thermal result, assembly quality, manufacturing test plan, certification, compliance, or safe service outcome.
The record preserves a source-backed hardware outline without treating public project material as a fabrication, repair, electrical-safety, or universal final-unit specification.
The repository names an ATtiny1614, buttons, two CR2032 clips, 5050 NeoPixel, trimmer, capacitor, transistor, and infrared LEDs and preserves board/design material, but reviewed sources do not establish final component substitutions, battery brand/capacity, polarity/protection behavior, power budget, runtime, electrical limits, thermal result, assembly quality, manufacturing test plan, certification, compliance, or safe service outcome.

SiNE
note
Firmware hacking required ISP programming, avrdude, the ATTiny44A t44 part flag, and specific fuse values rather than a beginner-friendly USB bootloader path.
The badge was hackable, but deeper firmware work assumed AVR tooling and care around fuse configuration.
The walkthroughs document ATmega1284P, FTDI serial, Optiboot, flash dumping and flashing, but do not publish schematic, PCB files, BOM, component placement, enclosure files, source firmware, or manufacturing records.
Hardware and software fields stay limited to the official challenge walkthrough evidence.
The sources use hackable-badge and competition language but publish no physical form, PCB, controller, components, display, power system, connector, radio, sensor, schematic, BOM, Gerber, firmware, source, binary, app, protocol, toolchain, flashing path, challenge rules, scoring model, test plan, safety guidance, or licence.
The record does not turn a planned interactive challenge into an electronic specification, a reproducible workflow, or a safe operating instruction.
The public HIDIOT hardware repository exposes board, schematic, and PNG files but no repository license metadata, and its README includes trademark and documentation-use constraints.
The catalogue links the hardware archive for evidence but does not copy media or imply broad reuse rights beyond what the source states.
OSHCamp 2023 Badge
note
The OSHCamp visual now uses an optimized WebP derived directly from the Solderpad-licensed `images/oshcamp23_badge_04.jpg` photo in the Electrolama badge repository.
The public badge page, image archive, and API point at a licensed original-photo derivative with source and attribution preserved.
The public sources describe an infrared-capable badge and preserve related source material, but do not establish final emitter configuration, output, range, target compatibility, actual device-interaction results, attendee use, venue authorization, legal or regulatory compliance, safety review, support policy, or final-unit parity. No use, configuration, targeting, payload, timing, or device-interaction directions are reproduced here.
The catalogue makes the event-artifact feature auditable while declining to provide operational guidance or to infer authorized, safe, reliable, or successful use.
The punk-security repository carries no LICENSE file, no license header in firmware.ino, and no license badge in the GitHub sidebar, so the firmware is treated as all-rights-reserved rather than redistributable.
The catalogue records the verified hardware and challenge surface without claiming redistribution rights over the firmware or any derivative.
GitHub reports the repository license as MIT, while the README says the hardware is released under CERN Open Hardware Licence v1.2; the source pass did not recover the referenced LICENSE_HARDWARE file.
The catalogue links repository images, diagrams, and hardware files as evidence but does not copy media or collapse the software, hardware, documentation, and artwork license boundaries.
Tildagon
note
Tildagon is not a fixed one-camp artifact: EMF says the badge is intended to return across events, while the live app directory and hexpansion docs continue to accumulate apps, add-ons, and recovery notes.
badge.gallery needs to treat Tildagon as a lifecycle record with recurring app, firmware, and hexpansion updates instead of a static EMF 2024 page.
SiNE
note
SiNE was designed to transmit a random badge ID to Raspberry Pis around the ship for movement trails, with public data planned after the event and a user-visible erase workflow.
The plan makes SiNE an early example of a playful badge feature with privacy implications; the wiki also states that the Raspberry Pis were never set up, so no location data was collected.
Punk Security's timeline dates its BSides Newcastle badge-sponsor appearance to October 5, 2024 and says it would present the making of that year's badge; its later public archive says the Plant Badge was given out at BSides Newcastle. No organizer-side 2024 recap, venue confirmation, production count, ticket-tier eligibility, role allocation, recipient list, pickup/handoff record, replacement policy, or proof that all attendees received the badge was recovered in this pass.
The catalogue records a source-backed event artifact while keeping maker-side provenance distinct from unrecovered organizer evidence and avoiding a universal allocation claim.
Punk Security's timeline dates its BSides Cheltenham badge-sponsor appearance to June 3, 2023, identifies functional Delorean conference badges, and says it would present a badge-building talk; its repository identifies the badge and source material. No organizer-side 2023 recap, venue confirmation, production count, ticket-tier eligibility, role allocation, recipient list, pickup/handoff record, replacement policy, or proof that all attendees received or completed the badge was recovered in this pass.
The catalogue records a source-backed event artifact while keeping maker-side provenance distinct from unrecovered organizer evidence and avoiding a universal allocation claim.
The public repository includes useful diagrams and rendered media, but no selected physical badge photo or official upstream raster has been paired with a clear reusable image license or permission basis, attribution, source URL, and processing notes for catalogue delivery.
The badge remains image-free until an explicitly reusable 44CON 2025 badge photo or render is cleared.

TiLDA MK3
note
The historical source trail records network/security caveats around insecure camp WiFi and HTTPS/SSL limitations for default apps.
Shows the practical tradeoffs of networked badges at camp scale.
The record is a conference identity-object badge, not an electronic PCB badge.
The compendium includes it because the official event history calls the disks badges; hardware/software fields remain conservative so readers do not infer electronics.
The 2017 brochure told attendees to buy the parts needed to build the badge from the front desk and use the assembly workshop area, so the badge experience depended on component kits and hands-on soldering.
The record models the badge as a build-it-yourself hardware artifact rather than a fully passive giveaway.
CyberThreat and SANS advertise a 2026 hackable-badge activity before the event. Neither source confirms a final badge design, manufacture, shipment, quantity, ticket-tier entitlement, participant allocation, collection process, delivery, replacement policy, completed competition, or individual handoff.
The catalogue treats this as a source-backed planned badge challenge rather than a confirmed distributed 2026 conference artifact.
The official pages establish a Student Pass badge-pickup date, but do not identify paper, plastic, metal, a lanyard, dimensions, artwork, barcode, QR code, RFID/NFC, PCB, controller, battery, display, connector, radio, firmware, app, manufacturer, quantity, or final physical form.
The record remains a planned student-pass identity artifact rather than an inferred electronic badge or a more specific physical credential unsupported by the official wording.
The conference remains future-dated and the reviewed organizer page does not publish a factual final-coin record with complete production, allocation, image-specific attribution, reusable license or explicit permission, source URL, and local processing provenance.
No image, final manufacturing, delivery, or visual-design claim is published; the record remains a source-backed, image-free planned token entry.
44CON described the 0.7 board as unreleased hardware with mostly finalized hardware but an incomplete HIDIOT software stack.
The record treats 0.7 as a real event badge and prototype board while separating Digispark-compatible operation from later HIDIOT 1.0 behavior.
TiLDA MK4
note
The MK4 wiki says the badge team was aware of instability while using calling capability and records a community observation that external antennas improved cellular reliability.
Useful reminder that badge RF/cellular features can be field-sensitive.
Tildagon
note
Official docs document replacement paths for multiple fragile or field-repairable components, including display-related parts, LEDs, and battery connectors.
The maintenance record matters because reusable camp badges only stay useful if spare-part and repair workflows survive after the event.
CyberThreat 2024 Hackable Badge
warning
The A Nice Edit walkthrough warns that the challenge carries a high risk of soft-bricking the badge and explains that erasing flash without preserving the bootloader can make USB programming unrecoverable without ISP.
The badge page preserves the original risk context for firmware modification instead of presenting the challenge as routine or risk-free.
The maker archive calls the artifact a working soil sensor, but it does not publish a deployed-use record, participant count, environmental conditions, calibration result, measurement comparison, challenge or game rules, data retention, participant outcome, prize policy, ongoing service status, or a safe/reproducible operating procedure. No sensing, connection, configuration, or interaction directions are reproduced here.
The catalogue makes the source-described badge feature discoverable without inferring tested performance, universal participation, a completed challenge, individual outcomes, or a safe operating workflow.
The official timeline documents the object and rationale but does not expose individual artifact photos, designer names, or attendee stories in text.
The first-pass record should be upgraded only when licensed original photos or more detailed archives are recovered.
GitHub metadata reports a null detected license for the repository, and no root LICENSE or COPYING file was recovered in the public tree. The public repo contains board and schematic images, but neither it nor the maker event page pairs a selected factual badge photo or official render with an image-specific reuse basis, named attribution, source URL, and processing provenance.

The official pages refer to an attendee badge and the post-event statistics page reports ticket and check-in reporting, but none establishes which ticket categories, speakers, volunteers, sponsors, press attendees, or guests received one; who supplied it; ticket-to-badge mapping; quantity; price; pickup procedure; presentation requirements; loss/replacement policy; shipment; receipt; or a completed delivery ledger.
The catalogue preserves the organizer's credential language without presenting it as a ticket-wide entitlement, admission requirement, or proof that any individual received a badge.
The named coin belongs to the Early Bird package, which the organizer currently marks sold out. The First and Second Release descriptions do not mention the coin. Reviewed material does not establish Early Bird quantity, eligibility details beyond that package, exact purchaser count, allocation, production inventory, registration pickup, recipient receipt, transfer outcome, loss/replacement policy, shipment, refund treatment, or completed delivery.
The catalogue does not turn a sold-out limited package into proof that every ticket holder, every Early Bird purchaser, or any individual attendee has received a coin.
The maker archive says attendees used venue treasure chests to unlock additional LED modes and preserves related source/model material. It does not publish a chest count, placement/deployment record, final companion configuration, connection details, challenge values, player count, participation data, score or completion data, participant identities, prize policy, official result, or ongoing service status. No interaction procedure is reproduced here.
The catalogue records the documented badge game without claiming universal participation, a completed CTF, any individual outcome, or a safe/reproducible operating procedure.
OSHCamp 2023 Badge
note
The OSHUG event page framed the badge session as a solder-paste and reflow workshop and told attendees to bring their own tools and accessories for programming and use.
The badge experience depended on workshop readiness instead of only passive distribution; that is useful context for anyone comparing camp-badge accessibility.
Hack Glasgow's FAQ says an attendee may write a handle or name on their badge, while its August 16 statistics update supports completion of the August 15 event. Neither source identifies paper, plastic, metal, lanyard, dimensions, printed design, barcode, QR code, RFID/NFC, display, PCB, components, battery, manufacture, quantity, or final physical form.
The record is deliberately modeled as a completed-event identity artifact rather than an electronic badge or a more specific physical credential unsupported by the organizer's public wording.
