Filed under: contests, cons[Joe Grand] is designing the Defcon badges for the third year in a row. Just like the previous years, they'll be hosting a badge hacking contest. This time around though, they're going to start leaking clues in advance. Earlier contests were often frustrating because of the specialized equipment needed to talk to the microcontroller. Hopefully this year it will be a lot more accesible. The specs for the badge have not been released yet, but after last year's 95 LED scrolling marque, we can't wait to see what this year will bring. [Joe] has posted info on the previous two badge designs and resulting contests.Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
