Dante's Inferno Badge (DEF CON 32)

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.

NilbinSec DC34 Main Badge Fuzzer SAO

Independent ATtiny1614 DEF CON 34 badge-challenge fuzzer SAO

NilbinSec's public DC34 Main Badge Fuzzer SAO repository documents a standalone SAO designed to exercise interfaces on the official DEF CON 34 Human badge using information published before the conference. Its README describes three initial modes: GPIO1/GPIO2 stimulation on the left SAO port, an open-drain CPU wake assertion on GPIO4 of the right port, and an I²C-address listening sweep. The repository provides a KiCad schematic, BOM CSV, PCB archive, C firmware, and compiled hex/ELF files. The README explicitly warns that Mode 1 may harm the main badge and says a convention reflash might follow. This is source-backed pre-event independent challenge hardware, not proof of a finished run, sale, giveaway, pickup, compatibility with a final main-badge revision, authorization to probe another badge, official DEF CON issuance or admission, a reusable-image grant, or an explicit software/hardware licence.
