BSidesKC 2025 Badge
Badge Pirates ESP32-S3 touchscreen conference badge with a later firmware path
The BSidesKC 2025 badge was a Badge Pirates fully electronic conference badge documented through public production and fulfillment updates: 250 fully assembled ESP32 touchscreen badges from PCBWay with 3.2 inch touch screens, Wi-Fi, SD card slots, customs delays, tariff impact, and post-event pickup or shipping handling. A current maker-hosted flasher identifies its target as ESP32-S3, while a 2026 Badge Pirates announcement says the delayed 2025 hardware, not a new board, received a Lunar Lander contest continuation for BSidesKC's Ad Astra programme.
