The Diana Initiative
The August 21-22, 2020 online Diana Initiative edition whose Sched archive documents a virtual conference and a `Basic Arduino coding using virtual Badge` Village Workshop by @TechGirlMN, while TechGirlMN's Maker Village archive preserves the off-the-shelf Arduino badge build materials.

The Diana Initiative 2020 off-the-shelf virtual badge was a self-built Arduino Nano and breadboard-badge workshop artifact for the online conference. Sched documents the August 22, 2020 `Basic Arduino coding using virtual Badge` Village Workshop, while TechGirlMN's archive preserves the Tinkercad virtual badge, hardware BOM, wiring notes, and Arduino Create firmware examples.
Lifecycle
The build guide lists a button and 10K resistor, and the Arduino examples include button-reading behavior for the workshop badge exercises.
The archive links basic blinky, seven-LED scanner, and grab-and-go sketches for the TDI 2020 off-the-shelf badge workshop.
TechGirlMN's hardware guide centers the remote badge build on an Arduino Nano mounted to a solderable breadboard-style PCB.
The Maker Village archive links an off-the-shelf virtual badge in Tinkercad so remote participants could inspect or simulate the project.
The BOM and wiring chart document seven LEDs with 220 ohm resistors mapped across Arduino digital pins D2 through D8.
Operational history
The United States record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.
The record limits hardware and software claims to the common-parts build guide and public code previews, with image publication withheld until rights-cleared provenance exists.
The catalogue models the badge as a virtual-conference workshop build and simulation artifact rather than upgrading it into an all-attendee production electronic badge.
