Description: The DEFCON 16 Badge was created for the 2008 edition of DEFCON, the largest and oldest continuously running hacker and computer security convention in the world. The badge uses active electronics, an artistically-designed circuit board, and provides intentionally “open” circuitry to allow attendees to experiment with and modify the badge to their liking.The year's design is based around a Freescale Flexis MC9S08JM60 8-bit microcontroller and features infrared data transmission and reception, SecureDigital (SD) memory card and FAT16 file system support, and a USB bootloader for in-the-field firmware upgrades. Source code was developed using the freely available CodeWarrior Development Studio for Microcontrollers and the Freescale JM60 GUI Installer. A single CR123A 3V Lithium battery provides the required power and a single push-button switch serves as the user interface to cycle through the three operating states of the badge:ReceiveTransmit (or TV-B-Gone Mode if no SD card is inserted)SleepA total of 8,500 badges were manufactured and eight different text cut-outs and soldermask/silkscreen color combinations were used to denote the different DEFCON clientele: Human, Goon, Staff, Press, Speaker, Vendor, Contest Organizer, and Uber (awarded to the winners of official DEFCON contests). This badge for this auction is the Human badge!Joe Grand of Grand Idea Studio Created this piece of art! Add it to your collection!
