No iFixit SAO (DEF CON 34) 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.

dated maker production claim

iFixit SAO 2026 final-design commit

Zachary Peterson's July 18, 2026 commit message reads Version 0.1 - FINAL: art, code, and PCB. 1000 made for DEFCON34. It is a direct project-publisher claim about a run, not an independent manufacturing audit, recipient ledger, pickup confirmation, or completed event handoff.

immutable maker technical documentation

iFixit SAO 2026 commit-pinned README

The pinned README calls the project a 2026 iFixit Shitty Add On, documents its high-level LED, soldering-challenge, ATtiny1604, PlatformIO/Arduino, and KiCad surface, and names the source-declared collaboration. It is technical project documentation, not a final production, allocation, or operating-instruction guarantee.

official event calendar

DEF CON 34 official calendar context

DEF CON's official forum calendar places DEF CON 34 at the Las Vegas Convention Center on August 6-9, 2026. It supplies calendar context only and does not name NerdFlare's iFixit SAO, authorize it, confirm a booth or distribution, or make it an admission credential.

public maker source repository

iFixit SAO 2026 source repository

NerdFlare's public repository description reads iFixit DEFCON 2026 SAO. Its root exposes art, code, images, and PCB directories, but GitHub reports no detected repository license. This establishes a publicly visible maker project, not an official DEF CON, iFixit corporate, vendor, credential, distribution, or image-reuse record.
