Outbound map
Official docs, app stores, wikis, talks, repositories, and issue pages across the badge catalogue.
Public Baochip-1x repository with open-source hardware elements, documented taped-out RTL, VexRiscv configuration, simulation/FPGA material, and CERN-OHL-W-2.0 licensing; it does not itself establish final DC34 board or firmware details.
Primary Baochip project site with links to the chip source, hardware reference, operating-system ecosystem, and current public project context.
The public sketch defines 15 addressable RGB positions, LED-power/data controls, and three PTC touch-node source pins. It is source evidence rather than a final release, binary, source-to-unit map, supported reprogramming guide, or proof of a physical event unit.
The pinned helper notes are explicitly RP2040-focused and show an rp2040:rp2040:rpipico FQBN example. They support a Pico-class firmware target, not a guarantee of the exact physical board, host compatibility, safe flashing, power design, or firmware used by every artifact.
Commit-pinned PCB fabrication archive named by the maker for the Seasides 2026 Roulette Badge. It supports the existence of a design/fabrication source surface but does not license the archive or prove a particular manufacture, production count, or event handoff.
Maker-published firmware notes that distinguish rev-1 and rev-2 implementation details around audio, storage, and infrared behavior. They establish a documented revision trail, not a signed release, firmware-to-unit hash, security review, guaranteed update/recovery outcome, event media set, or unit-wide parity claim.
Commit-pinned companion README for the custom TROPICON badge firmware. It provides high-level schedule, environmental-reading, and messaging context, but is linked for provenance rather than as operational guidance or an image-reuse grant.
Public `badge.c` source surface referenced by the maker README for the ATtiny85 badge firmware. It is a reproducibility reference, not proof that every event unit used this exact revision or that the repository's contents carry a reusable license.
Electronic Cats' public source archive self-identifies as the official Badge DojoCon Panamá 2026 repository. Its commit-pinned tree contains KiCad hardware files and documentation, and its v1.0 release was published on April 30, before the event. It supports the public design trail, not a mapping to a particular attendee unit, a completed delivery, or a reusable badge-image grant.
Commit-pinned primary hardware README naming the ESP32-C6, NV3007 display context, LoRa hardware, and AHT30. It documents a design source, not a final production unit, safe operating characteristics, or image-reuse basis.
Commit-pinned schematic document for the maker's Roulette Badge design. It is paired with the project's Gerber archive and supports a documented design trail, while leaving fabrication run, assembled revision, inspection, electrical limits, and final event-unit parity open.
Maintainer commit whose message says the described boards were fabricated, assembled, and playing music, and that every badge's silkscreened QR code points to the repository. It is primary source-publisher evidence of a physical maker run, not evidence of DEF CON or venue authorization, a named event programme, quantity, purchaser or recipient entitlement, delivery outcome, credential role, or independently verified condition of every unit.
Primary maker documentation for the wearable silent-disco framing, local DJ mixes, headphones, music-linked lighting, infrared badge-to-badge sync, RP2040, MicroPython/native MP3 decoder, four addressable LEDs, USB-C, sawtooth edges, current universal UF2, public KiCad sources, fabrication files, and Pikkolo Assembly design/build credit. It does not independently verify an organizer relationship, completed distribution, final unit parity, or reusable image rights.
Immutable October 9, 2025 README snapshot created before the conference. It identifies an ESP32, a 240×320 ILI9341 TFT panel, wiring, and a Badge Challenge 2025 association, without proving final physical form, organizer authorization, recipient scope, or delivery.
Primary maker documentation for the 300-plus live-assembly statement; ATtiny85, 74HC595, eight-LED, UART, EEPROM, animation, eight-stage CTF, and author claims. The README's voltage labels and build guidance do not establish a final production-unit power configuration, safety review, or distribution ledger.
Rahul Thareja's commit-pinned public project archive. Its project title and README call the object a Seasides 2026 Roulette Badge built for the Hardware Village, and the archive includes firmware, schematic, Gerber, and image-file surfaces. It is maker-declared event association, not an organizer confirmation of official issue, all-attendee allocation, final event-unit parity, or reusable-image permission.
The commit-pinned README calls this firmware for the OWASP DefCon 34 SAO, credits MegaTinyCore as a foundation, and says UPDI is exposed on the SAO header for reprogramming. It does not identify the exact MCU, final physical artifact, connector pinout, host compatibility, safe procedure, or event delivery.
Commit-pinned CPEC source whose README says it contains design files for SAO plug-in modules for the CPEC DC 34 badge. The tree includes native KiCad project, PCB, and schematic files with fist, gatling, laser, missile, panel, and sword names, an Arduino source file, and BOM/placement artifacts. It establishes a scoped companion design-file trail, not fabrication, populated hardware, pinout/electrical compatibility, working firmware, final revision, distribution, event authorization, or image-reuse permission.
The named badge partner's public MIT archive was initially committed August 12 and updated August 15. Its README documents the ESP32-S3 platform, CircuitPython 10.2.1 workflow, hardware reference, samples, and limitations; it is not an independent recipient ledger or manufacturing audit.
Public April 10, 2025 archive with the matching badge README plus KiCad PCB/schematic and Meshtastic-derived source tree. It is not linked from the official site, so it remains a source-bounded technical archive rather than a final production or deployment record.
Current community-maintained DC34 contest index that describes DEF CON 34 as the tenth year of Whose Slide Is It Anyway?. It corroborates current contest context, but is not the badge maker's product, technical, distribution, or image-rights source.
