RP2040 CAN-bus badge with CHV SAO ecosystem
Car Hacking Village's DEF CON 32 badge ecosystem centered on a main RP2040 badge with CAN-network surfaces, four CHV SAO connectors, public board and firmware repositories, public CTF challenge notes, and IOActive's separately documented key-fob badge / SAO build.
Independent three-board LED badge with a later DEF CON 33 vendor-list trail
redactd's Tindie listing introduces Dante's Inferno as an electronic badge just in time for DefCon 32, inspired by the Dante's Inferno Room. It describes three connected circuit boards, special two-color solder mask on the top two boards, sixty LEDs, an included CR123A battery, a populated SAO v1.69bis port, custom-printed box, laser-cut foam insert, and lanyard. The same maker's public repository documents a USB/UF2 firmware-update procedure and a July 2024 v1.1 release for pre-sale 1.0/1.01 units. A Hacker Couture DEFCON 33 product list later repeats the $100 product and core three-board, sixty-LED, CR123A, and SAO claims. Together, these sources establish one source-backed independent 2024 DEF CON 32 artifact with a later 2025 vendor-list recurrence, not an official DEF CON credential, a second DC33 badge, confirmed distribution at either event, a complete electrical design, a licensed source-code archive, or reusable-image rights.
Unofficial ESP32-C3 handheld-style DEF CON 32 badge
The Hackbat Badge is an unofficial DEF CON 32 badgelife board documented by the Hackbat project page and GPL-3.0 GitHub repository, with ESP32-C3 Wi-Fi/BLE, OLED display, WS2812 LEDs, six buttons, AA-cell case support, and production files.
Multi-layer tactical recon badge
Recon Village's DEF CON 32 badge entry, The Recon Soldier, was a tactical-recon multi-layer PCB badge with red and blue LED eyes, 3D assembled design, and military helmet artwork.
Retrospectively documented independent ESP32-S3 electronic badge
Retia, LLC's public repository is currently named `DefconBadge2026`, but its immutable first source-release commit calls the project `DEF CON badge (2024)` and its README is titled `DEF CON Badge (2024) — ESP32-S3`. That source snapshot includes KiCad and fabrication material named `2024_def_con_badge_v1`, a badge photograph, and high-level hardware documentation. The official DEF CON archive identifies the 2024 event as DEF CON 32, so the record is attached to that existing edition as a retrospectively documented independent artifact; neither Retia nor DEF CON source reviewed here calls it an official Human badge, an attendee entitlement, or a confirmed event handoff.
