All participants at BornHack 2017 will receive an electronic name badge. Our Badge Team has been working hard on the badge for this years BornHack. To help everyone prepare for software and hardware hacking of the badge we are releasing a few details.

The hardware is based on a 32 bit ARM Cortex M0+ from SiLabs, specifically the Happy Gecko with built in USB, and a 128x64 pixel OLED display, in addition to a bunch of extra GPIOs for expansions.

To build software for the badge you can use the arm-none-eabi-gcc toolchain, on pretty much all operating systems - see the badge2017 repository on github for more details.

Stay tuned for more updates, board layout and example code.
