A limited NDH2K15 electronic collector badge kit sold through the official Nuit du Hack store, described as Arduino Micro-compatible, USB-compatible, easy to program or hack, and developed by Electrolab.
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.
PIC badge with IR sync, TV-B-Gone, and password manager
BalCCon's first official badge combined synchronized LED patterns, IR badge-to-badge recognition, a TV-B-Gone mode, and a USB HID password manager.
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.
ATTiny85 USB HID injector badge
A small H2HC 2017 badge built around an ATTiny85 USB-stick module for USB HID keyboard-injector experiments, Micronucleus bootloader flashing, and Arduino IDE workshop-style payload development.
STM32F4 badge for CAN bus and vehicle-hacking experiments
LayerOne 2017's electronic badge was a CAN-bus-focused STM32F4 conference badge with a TFT display, storage, USB device and host behavior, external CAN headers, audio output, rechargeable battery planning, PC-side CAN tooling, and J2534-adjacent software work.
RP2040 New Normal macro-pad badge
An MK Factor official DEF CON 29 electronic badge built around Raspberry Pi's RP2040, a 1.8-inch LCD, six-button D-pad surface, SAO connectors, USB-C, speaker, coin-cell plus USB power behavior, UF2 firmware updates, HID macro-pad mode, and a New Normal challenge path.
Hack Live customizable hotkey badge
Kernelcon 2021's Hacker HotKey was a customizable hotkey stream-deck badge configured for Hack Live voting, challenge sabotage, hint, and website-launch behavior, with public Arduino Leonardo firmware examples.
PIC16F1455 USB keyboard badge with addressable LEDs
LayerOne 2023's electronic badge was a PIC16F1455 USB HID and keyboard badge with WS2812B/SK6812-style addressable LEDs, DFU update workflow, writable flash-backed macro behavior, and a badge-competition path around a partial RubberDucky 2.0 script interpreter.
Pre-event RP2040 mechanical macropad BadgeLife project
DCZia's MK9 is a public-source 3×3 mechanical macropad intended as a neck-wearable DEF CON 34 BadgeLife project. Project documentation specifies nine MX switches, RGB per-key and edge lighting, an accelerometer, two 6-pin SAO connectors, USB-C or three-AAA power, CircuitPython firmware, and QMK-compatible hardware. A public August 2 announcement says the project plans BadgeLife pickup, but this remains a pre-event independent badge rather than an official DEF CON admission credential.
