Projects:Badge

We want to make an awesome badge.

We have an irc channel at #sha2017-badge on freenode and will have a mailing list very soon.

Current Team:

• realitygaps
• the_Jinx
• Einstein
• Stijn
• Kartoffel
• someone we forgot?

Our current brainstorms and meeting notes are at https://pad.ijhack.nl/p/shabadge

We will continue having meetings online on the irc channel once every couple of weeks for the moment.

TLDR; from SHADAY Kickoff meeting:

What we'd like:

   an actual badge 

   low barrier to entry for playing with

   decent battery life

   up to date schedule 

   integration with volunteer system

   ability to interact with installations

   location/mapping with added metadata (guided tours etc)

   useful after the event

   sunlight readable?

How do we think we can achieve this?

   openwrt seems like a popular idea

   e-ink seems nice but only available cheaply in 6" (too large?)

   btle seems useful for location/interactions

   wifi makes it useful after the event

   api for making your installation controllable from the badge
