A source-backed ARAMCON 2019 smart badge record for an nRF52840 conference badge with a 2.9-inch e-paper display, accelerometer, flash, MP3/WMA audio codec, Cherry MX keys, NeoPixels, SAO connector, CircuitPython support, and public KiCad hardware files.
Lifecycle
The badge has CircuitPython board support and an MIT-licensed firmware repository with badge-drive copy/install steps and CircUp library installation.
The ARAMCON badge combined an nRF52840 module, 2.9-inch e-paper display, accelerometer, flash, MP3/WMA audio codec, Cherry MX keys, NeoPixels, SAO connector, and KiCad PCB files.
The build story and Hackaday article call out a clothespin-based programming jig as part of the practical production workaround trail.
The production story documents planned mesh networking and audio streaming, with final event success framed around a room-scale mesh LED demo rather than complete audio broadcast behavior.
Operational history
The record distinguishes hardware capability and project ambition from the exact final attendee experience.
The Israeli entry now has a rights-cleared original documentation photo with source URL, license, attribution, and processing notes while avoiding generated or placeholder imagery.
