HackGDL 2026

The completed March 14, 2026 Guadalajara HackGDL edition whose official page, sponsor deck, organizer feed, and Electronic Cats sources document an event-associated RV1106G3 camera badge artifact without proving attendee inclusion or credential allocation.

HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge

Electronic Cats publicly listed and sourced a Camera Badge HackGDL 2026: an RV1106G3 Linux camera badge with a 3 MP camera and public hardware files. HackGDL's official site records its completed March 14, 2026 edition and names Electronic Cats among sponsors; the organizer's public feed later promoted the 2026 badge alongside 2025 stock. These sources establish a named event-associated artifact, not ticket inclusion, attendee receipt, access-control use, recipient count, production run, or final deployed firmware.

badge interface and power surface

NeoPixels, buttons, USB, GPIO, and 18650 support

Electronic Cats lists WS2812E NeoPixels, buttons, a USB hub, GPIO/UART, 18650 battery support, and a buck-converter power path; this does not establish final production configuration or safety validation.

HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge archived source

hardware archive

Native KiCad hardware archive

The public hardware tree preserves KiCad board, schematic, project, footprint, camera, MCU, USB, power, and mechanical-source files for the named 2026 artifact.

HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge note

event association and allocation boundary · official event page, organizer feed, product page, and repository · documented event association only

HackGDL's official sources name Electronic Cats in the 2026 event context, the organizer feed later promotes a 2026 badge bundle, and Electronic Cats publishes a Camera Badge HackGDL 2026 product and repository. None of those sources proves inclusion with admission, attendee receipt, access-control role, recipient count, ticket tier, price at the event, pickup, shipment, or final distribution.

The catalogue treats this as a real event-associated camera-badge artifact without representing it as a universal attendee credential or completed fulfillment record.

HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge note

firmware, camera, and deployment boundary · public project and product documentation · not fully documented

The project and product pages support a Linux/Luckfox camera-badge platform, but this pass did not establish a signed release, final deployed image, post-event firmware parity, camera-use workflow, operating-state defaults, or a data-handling statement for any distributed units.

The record avoids setup, login, and interface-command instructions and does not infer security, privacy, operational, or final firmware properties beyond the documented high-level platform.

HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge note

hardware, power, and production archive gap · product page and public KiCad tree · needs deeper production evidence

The public hardware tree includes native KiCad files and named camera, MCU, USB, power, footprint, and mechanical paths, but this pass did not verify a production BOM, component population, assembly revision, battery/charging safety review, completed test record, radio configuration, manufacturing lot, or final artifact-to-source parity.

Hardware claims remain limited to the documented high-level surface and visible source tree rather than being treated as an audited final production specification.

HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge note

license and repository-media boundary · GitHub API metadata and repository tree · documented with caution

GitHub metadata reports `license: null` for ElectronicCats/badge_hackgdl_2026, and the reviewed recursive tree exposes no top-level LICENSE or COPYING file. Public source and hardware files do not by themselves grant reuse rights for product photos, README imagery, logos, trademarks, social media, or other repository media.

The catalogue cites the source trail but publishes no image and makes no broad code, hardware, artwork, or trademark reuse claim.

HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge note

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

No HackGDL 2026 Camera Badge 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 Mexico record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.
