Attendee kit badge by Jonathan Singer

BSides Orlando 2026 Electronic Badge

CH32V003 part-built solder-kit badge with the Lil Chompy text-adventure CTF

BSides Orlando 2026's attendee badge is a retro-futurist CH32V003 RISC-V board, a 1960s World's Fair vision of tomorrow with Lil Chompy the alligator at the wheel of a flying car, handed out as a part-built solder kit and programmed in the conference Soldering Village. Security BSides Orlando's official GitHub organization published the design from August 4, 2026; its 2026-badge repository was not publicly reachable from September 25 and reappeared on September 29-30 with the KiCad source, the EasyEDA full-colour-silkscreen Gerbers as ordered from JLCPCB, the badge firmware, a v1.0.0 release dated September 26, and a README stating that its programmer SAOs flashed all of the attendees' badges in the Soldering Village at BSides Orlando. Three SK6812MINI-E RGB LEDs form the flying car's headlights and a fingerprint-scanner indicator, four self-blinking LEDs light the tower spire and geodesic sphere, two capacitive touch pads sit under the fingerprint and Lil Chompy's head, one AAA cell feeds a TPS61021A boost converter, and the SAO header doubles as an SAOv3 host and a 115200-baud serial console running the Lil Chompy and the World's Fair text-adventure CTF.
