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
