Camp lineage
Hacker camp and conference editions represented in the worldwide catalogue, grouped by their event series and badge history.
Richmond Marriott Downtown, Richmond, Virginia
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.
Humanities and Social Sciences Building, Academia Sinica, Nangang District, Taipei
The completed August 21-22, 2026 HITCON security conference at Academia Sinica. Official KKTIX ticketing retains the completed onsite sales window, and the official organizer account's August 22 closing update confirms that NFC Battle ran. The official event and ticket pages establish an attendee badge in published ticket-package conditions, while the official events page says every attendee badge embeds an NTAG215 NFC chip for phone-tap collectible-card exchanges. The reviewed sources do not identify the 2026 badge's physical construction, PCB, firmware, access-control role, data handling, individual receipt, or image-reuse rights.
Royce Hotel & Casino, Clark, Pampanga
The completed September 23-25, 2026 ROOTCON twentieth edition at Royce Hotel & Casino in Clark, whose con-goers guide promised first-come electronic badges at on-site check-in with a Type-B non-electronic fallback. September 26 through 29 rechecks found the homepage still in pre-event wording, but the September 30 recheck found an official post-event ROOTCON 20 media drop dated September 28, 2026 with TRACK01 and TRACK02 talk-slide archives, speaker bios, lanyard and pouch artwork, the ROOTCON XX Homecoming Edition magazine, and the rc20-human-fw.bin ESP32-S3 Meshtastic badge firmware, so the edition is now marked completed while electronic-badge counts and the Type-B split stay unverified.
Fairmont Ambassador Hotel Seoul, Seoul
The April 2-3, 2026 Zer0Con closed vulnerability-research conference in Seoul whose official page documents event context and whose POC Security update trail documents limited registration availability.
Jardín Americana, Guadalajara, Jalisco
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.
Hilton Omaha Downtown, Omaha, Nebraska
The April 7-10, 2026 Kernelcon event in Omaha, with the main conference on April 9-10 and an official off-grid ESP32 weather badge with quest and crank-power behavior.
Seek HQ, 60-88 Cremorne St, Cremorne, Melbourne
The May 15-17, 2026 BSides Melbourne edition whose official home page documents training and conference dates at Seek HQ and whose sponsorship package documents a lanyard item that includes participant badges.
National Convention Centre, Canberra
The planned September 24-26, 2026 BSides Canberra edition whose public ticketing page documents electronic attendee-badge inclusion and whose official CFP documents a speaker/event-host badge for accepted talks or events. A September 27 recheck after the fully elapsed dates found the CFP page still in pre-event wording and the ticketing page still not resolving, a September 28 recheck received an explicit HTTP 404 from that ticketing URL, and September 29 and 30 rechecks found the official homepage still advertising tickets for the 24-26th September 2026 dates, so the edition is not yet marked completed and badge handoff stays unverified.
Focus Rooms, 20 Heaton Lane Longlake, Johannesburg
The completed July 25, 2026 Light The Way BSides Joburg edition at Focus Rooms, Johannesburg, anchored by the official chapter event site. The elapsed date plus an August 13, 2026 first-hand attendee write-up and firmware archive document the held conference and its shipped ATtiny816 electronic badge, while the official site itself still reads pre-event with no wrap-up.
Engineering 5, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario
The completed September 18-20, 2026 Hack the North edition at the University of Waterloo, anchored by the official Devpost page for the 36-hour invite-only 1000-student hackathon, whose QR-coded attendee badges and Solana Best Badge Hack prize confirm a hackable hardware badge, with attendee firmware archives documenting the ESP32-C3 platform. On October 13-14, 2026 Hack the North published the badge's KiCad hardware and GPL-3.0 firmware as open source.
TechBase, Regensburg
The September 15-16, 2026 ScapyCon edition at TechBase Regensburg, anchored by the official event page. The elapsed date plus participant talk, workshop, and badge firmware archives corroborate the held conference, while the official page still carries pre-event ticketing wording, so the edition is not marked completed on official wrap-up evidence and badge issuance details stay open. A September 27 recheck found the page unchanged, still pre-event with the gallery showing 2025 photos, and the September 28 through 30 rechecks found it unchanged again.
GOELRO, Moscow
The completed August 20-21, 2026 OFFZONE edition at GOELRO in Moscow, anchored by the official conference site's 2026 recap of roughly 3000 participants and 130+ speakers. A first-hand attendee toolkit documents the event's STM32 serial-console badge, while organizer pages themselves do not mention the badge.
Shangri-La Ulaanbaatar, 19 Olympic Street, Sukhbaatar District, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
The September 24, 2026 thirteenth MNSEC cybersecurity conference, organized by MNCERT/CC at the Shangri-La Ulaanbaatar under the Security Beyond Human Scale theme with the Haruul Zangi national CTF final. The official site, checked September 29 and 30, 2026 after the elapsed date, still reads pre-event with sold-out tickets and publishes no badge statement, so the edition is not marked completed; a September 28 upload by the Beelog maintainer of the MNSEC 2025 badge archive adds an MNSEC13 event-badge user guide and board renders, while attendee allocation and handoff stay unverified.
Amora Hotel Adelaide, South Australia
The July 27-28, 2026 third BSides Adelaide edition at Amora Hotel Adelaide, previously Hilton Adelaide, is complete; CFP, Humanitix, and sponsorship material anchor the event context while the sponsor brief documents printing, lanyards, and badges as attendee-support expenses.
QUT Gardens Point Campus - Z Block, Brisbane
The July 4, 2026 Queensland BSides edition whose public prospectus and ticketing pages document conference badges, a VIP special badge tier, and electronic badge design/build for 500 delegates; post-event social updates confirm check-in badge pickup and BLARGE electronic-badge support.
UWA Business School, Crawley, Perth
The planned November 13-14, 2026 BSides Perth edition whose official event page lists conference swag including a t-shirt, badge, and stickers for participant tickets.
Emerging Technologies Hub, Central Ballarat, Victoria
The February 28-March 1, 2026 regional Victorian BSides edition whose public event page documents the Underground interactive ESP32 conference badge, SAO support, and limited BSides SAO add-on.
CEC, Buenos Aires
The planned October 7-9, 2026 EKO 22 Buenos Aires edition at CEC, where the current Champion ticket offer includes an electronic badge while supplies last but public sources do not yet document shipped badge hardware. A September 28 recheck found the full main-track agenda published with still no badge mention or reveal on the official event page. On October 3, 2026, badge-team member Nicolas Restbergs published the badge firmware, schematic, and manual as marsfactory/ekoparty-badge-2026: an nRF52840 and SX1262 Meshtastic node with OLED and RGB backlights. Firmware v1.0.4 followed on October 5, and on October 8 the badge team added an EasyEDA Pro project and a warning that the badges were assembled with low-temperature solder. An October 12 attendee writeup confirms the conference took place with Meshtastic Eko Badges. By October 9 the official event page had added an EKO BADGE ELECTRÓNICO section linking the badge team's guide, but on October 21 it still read pre-event with no wrap-up, so the edition is not yet marked completed.
Auditorio UTEC Barranco, Lima
The June 4-6, 2026 Lima UnknownCon edition that advertised a lanyard plus official badge with the free conference pass; a public Electronic Cats source archive describes an electronic Pwn Llama badge with KiCad hardware and PwnPet firmware, while source association and attendee delivery remain separately bounded.
The Hackhouse, 124 Manyani East Road, Westlands, Nairobi
The completed August 27-29, 2026 AfricaHackOn Cybersecurity Summit at The Hackhouse in Nairobi. Its official schedule says opening registration and welcome let attendees ‘grab your badge & coffee,’ and the organizer’s post-event update confirms the three-day summit concluded. Neither source establishes a completed badge handoff, material form, or electronic credential.
IUT de Saint-Pierre, Saint-Pierre, Reunion
The April 2, 2026 Indian Ocean Security BSides edition whose official post-event site documents about 80 participants and whose volunteer page explicitly lists distributing badges and goodies to participants.

Resorts World, Las Vegas, Nevada
The completed June 1-4, 2026 Workday developer conference at Resorts World in Las Vegas. Workday's current event page says the main stage is closed, while a public post-event app archive identifies a Pimoroni Blinky 2350 badge as distributed at the event. The official Workday sources do not directly identify the badge's allocation, event-specific hardware or firmware, maker, or image rights.
Cloth Hall Court, Quebec Street, Leeds
The June 13, 2026 seventh BSides Leeds edition whose punk-security repository documents an ATtiny814 Artie the Owl LED badge with three single-player games and a one-byte EEPROM unlock that gates hidden bonus animations.

The June 13, 2026 Des Moines Security BSides edition whose iot-pwn bsidesdsm26 repository documents a CH585 RISC-V badge with an ISO 14443A NFC reader, SK6812 LEDs, and an eight-tag village-collection CTF with two static flags.
International Centre Goa, Goa
The February 19-21, 2026 Seasides conference in Goa whose official site links a Hardware Hacking Village page documenting a soldering badge, enough badges for attendees, and a hidden hardware/firmware badge challenge. A later maker archive calls its ATtiny85 design the Seasides 2026 Roulette Badge and says 300-plus people assembled it live, but the official event pages do not independently name that exact board or final configuration.

Official conference updates place its Sunday Tables Day at Site B in Port Moody and say those attendees will receive a SYCL Badge V2, while the wider event includes Coquitlam talk days. Public material documents the planned badge and selected high-level revision claims, not final manufacture, exact unit configuration, delivery, or image rights.
Escuela Politécnica Superior, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Cantoblanco, Madrid, Spain
The completed May 29, 2026 fifth C1B3RTR4CKS cybersecurity and cyberintelligence event at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. The organizer-linked SEIF-UAM repository identifies the C1B3RTR4CKS 2026 badge and public event firmware, while a contemporaneous attendee report describes the physical LED-matrix badge credential.

The retained official Overglade page describes its physical game-jam framing, and a current Hack Club page identifies a January 2026 Singapore Overglade that took place. Kai Pereira's public project archive explicitly calls its RP2040, e-ink, and NFC devices Overglade hackathon badges, while organizer allocation, final production variation, software deployment, licensing, and image rights remain bounded.
Singapore (venue not published in reviewed sources)
The completed January-February 2026 A.YCEP × Greycademy cybersecurity bootcamp and CTF program in Singapore, run by NUS Greyhats in collaboration with the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore's Advanced Youth Cyber Exploration Programme. Official announcements give the January 24-25 workshops, January 26-30 practice, and January 31 / February 7 qualifier-and-final schedule and say participants could take home electronic badges; the organizer's post confirms the program was held. A primary maker page documents a deployed Hackbadge created for Greycademy, while recipient allocation, final unit configuration, official hardware ownership, source release, and media rights remain bounded.
