Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

hardware-source depth caveat · firmware/readme source but no CAD archive · needs hardware archive recovery

The recovered 2026 trail documents controller, display, radio, LEDs, buzzer, buttons, firmware, games, RF behavior, and ticket inclusion, but this pass did not recover schematic, PCB files, BOM, enclosure files, exact shipped quantity, or hardware errata.

The record keeps hardware claims to the official site and firmware repository without inventing a final circuit, board revision, manufacturing run, or image provenance.

missing rights-cleared image · local project policy · needs licensed original replacement

No HackConRD 2026 eBadge image is published because the current public source trail has not been paired with a reusable original badge or artifact photo or official upstream raster render with source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes.

The Dominican Republic record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.
