Unreleased USB HID prototype board
The 44CON 2016 badge was the unreleased HIDIOT 0.7 board, a USB Human Interface Device Input/Output Toolkit prototype that attendees could build, program through the Arduino IDE as a Digispark-compatible device, and use for HID payload experiments.
Raw Hex USB HID hardware badge
The 44CON 2017 brochure documents the conference badge as a Raw Hex HIDIOT 1.0 44CON edition, a build-it-yourself USB HID board programmed through the Arduino IDE and supported by HIDIOT documentation, assembly help, and a Hackster project competition.

ATtiny402 DeLorean PCB-art conference badge
An electronic PCB-art conference badge documented by its maker and badge sponsor, Punk Security, for BSides Cheltenham 2023. Punk Security's own dated event listing identifies its June 3 Cheltenham appearance as that year's badge-sponsor engagement, names a talk on building the BSides Delorean badges, and describes them as functional conference badges. The public `bsides-cheltenham-2023-badge` repository calls the artifact the Delorean badge, reports that parts sold for badge completion on the day raised more than £300 for Mind, and preserves EAGLE, Gerber, library, and Arduino firmware material. Its parts list names an ATtiny402, button, CR2032 clip, NeoPixel, and 3528 blue LED. The reviewed sources do not establish organizer-side 2023 confirmation, venue, production quantity, attendee allocation, individual handoff, final unit-by-unit configuration, completed assembly count, safety validation, or reusable image provenance.
WiFi room-sensor name badge
A WiFi badge for Open Source Hardware Camp 2023, designed as a name badge, solder-paste workshop board, USB-UART adapter, qwiic/STEMMA QT sensor host, and post-event Tasmota room sensor.
ATtiny402 UFO PCB badge with source-described activity material
An electronic PCB badge identified by Punk Security's public source archive as the UFO badge for BSides Cheltenham 2024. Its repository preserves EAGLE, Gerber, Arduino firmware, vector-art, 3D-case, and activity-booklet material, and names an ATtiny402, button, CR2032 clip, and 5050 NeoPixel. The archive says the activity booklet was given out on the day. Punk Security's historical event timeline separately says it was the badge sponsor and had UFO badges, but currently renders that entry with an inconsistent early-2023 timestamp; the record therefore uses the repository's explicit 2024 badge identity without inventing an exact date or venue. The reviewed sources do not establish organizer-side 2024 confirmation, production quantity, attendee allocation, individual handoff, final unit-by-unit configuration, activity participation or outcome, safety validation, or reusable image provenance.
Little Shop of Horrors ATtiny402 soil-sensor PCB badge
An electronic PCB badge documented by its maker and badge sponsor, Punk Security, for BSides Newcastle 2024. Punk Security's own dated event listing identifies its October 5 Newcastle appearance as that year's badge-sponsor engagement and says Simon Gurney presented the making of the conference badge. The public `bsides-newcastle-2024-badge` archive calls the artifact the Little Shop of Horrors Plant Badge, says it was given out at BSides Newcastle, and describes it as a working soil sensor. It preserves EAGLE, EasyEDA, Gerber, firmware, board-image, and schematic material, and names an ATtiny402, button, CR2032 clip, 5050 NeoPixel, and 6.8 kΩ resistor. The reviewed sources do not establish organizer-side 2024 confirmation, venue, production quantity, attendee allocation, individual handoff, final unit-by-unit configuration, measurement performance, safety validation, or reusable image provenance.

Punk Security's own event page identifies it as badge sponsor and calls the artifact a Punk BSides skull badge, while its post-event repository identifies the Skull Badge and preserves EAGLE, Gerber, Arduino firmware, vector, and printed-art material. The archive names an ATtiny402, button, two CR2032 clips, and 5050 NeoPixel. The sources do not establish a production quantity, attendee allocation, individual handoff, final unit-by-unit configuration, safety validation, or reusable image provenance.
