DEFCON 18 Badge Creation: Step-by-Step Guide with Joe Grand 🔧

Speaker: Joe Grand For the fifth year in a row, the DEFCON Badge makes its appearance as a full-fledged, active electronic system. Pushing fabrication techniques to the limit and using some components that are so new they barely exist, the design of this year's badge took some serious risks. Did they pay off? If you're in this talk and not standing in a long line to get your badge, then the answer is "Yes!" Join Kingpin as he guides you through the entire process of the badge, from initial concept to prototype electronics to firmware design to manufacturing, and all of the problems and challenges he faced along the way.
