CactusCon PCB Badges

Yesterday I helped out at CactusCon hosting the HeatSync Labs soldering booth. There were 300 of these PCB badges to give away.

CactusCon is a local Security Conference for security professionals or anyone just interested security.

The badge designed by Erik Wilson features arms and legs that function as LAN Tap. The head is a USB 3.0 breakout. Over CactusCon you can fit a Teensy micro-controller with room next to it to add your own components.

Here's the badge with basic parts plus some extra neck support wires.

A finished badge with acrylic and LEDs looking classy.

We had plenty of people who knew how to solder. We had a few that were new to soldering. It was a great time.
