RVAsec
The June 9-10, 2026 RVAsec 15 edition whose official registration/package pages listed a limited Custom Hack.RVA Electronic badge and whose post-event HackRVA badge2026 repository publishes firmware, simulator, app-source, and UF2 release evidence.
Richmond Marriott Downtown, Richmond, Virginia · United States · 2026
RVAsec 2026 is now source-backed beyond the earlier package listing: the public HackRVA `badge2026` repository preserves Badge 2026 firmware, simulator/build instructions, UF2 flashing workflow, app source, image assets, and June 10, 2026 release binaries after the June 9-10 conference.
Lifecycle
The public README documents building a Posix-style SDL simulator for app development and debugging on a computer before flashing badge hardware.
Official RVAsec 15 pages list a limited Custom Hack.RVA Electronic badge as part of the hotel package.
The source tree preserves app/game modules, CLI code, display buffers, platform HAL files, and generated image assets for the RVAsec 2026 badge software.
GitHub Releases publishes the v2026.2 UF2 binary plus a v2026.2-ctf prerelease binary for the 2026 badge.
The README says to hold the small button beside the screen while connecting the badge over micro USB, then copy the UF2 firmware to the mounted RPI-RP2 filesystem.
Operational history
The catalogue can document the firmware, simulator, and RP2040/Pico SDK workflow while keeping manufacturing-grade hardware claims open.
The record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying repository PNGs, event photos, screenshots, or generated images.
The record stays image-free and avoids publishing repository badge images or firmware assets locally without explicit reuse rights.
