Caleb Marting is named by the root license and an attendee as the badge designer, and the attendee archive names putnam and Gerard Hudson for custom-firmware work. Reviewed sources do not allocate individual mechanical, electrical, firmware, artwork, fabrication, assembly, test, procurement, sales, handoff, support, or image-rights roles beyond those narrow facts.
