ShmooCon 2025: Master USB Hacking & Building with FPGAs 🔧

Cynthion, LUNA, Packetry, and Facedancer make it easier than ever before to build, test, and experiment with USB devices. These open source hardware and software projects take advantage of the reconfigurability of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), enabling a powerful combination of capabilities with unprecedented flexibility and ease of use. In this video of his talk at ShmooCon 2025, Michael reviews their architecture and the open source ecosystem that makes them possible, explains how these tools can be used to reverse engineer and meddle with off-the-shelf USB devices, and demonstrates new ways to construct USB devices.
