// rhc badge

The RHC Badge isn't swag — it's a hacking platform. Every badge shipped to DEF CON 34 attendees is a programmable device loaded with sensors, radios, and a CTF challenge baked into firmware. Here's what's inside.

🤖
AI Interactive Mode
The badge exposes AI Skills, MCP, and WebAPI interfaces so your AI agent can control it directly — no human in the loop required.

💡
RGB LEDs
RGB eye LED and arm LEDs. Build light shows, encode signals, or just make it look threatening.
🔊
Buzzer / Sound
Onboard buzzer capable of playing tones and melodies. Useful for alerts, feedback loops, or annoying your neighbors at the con.
🖥️
E-Paper Display
Push any image or text message to the e-paper screen. Wear your CTF handle. Display a QR code. Show a flag.
📡
Infrared TX/RX
Infrared send and receive module. Communicate with other badges on the floor — or take control of nearby TVs and air conditioners.
🚩
CTF Challenge Inside
A hardware CTF challenge is embedded in the badge firmware. Solve it. Earn your place on the board.
⚙️
Fully Programmable — Firmware Released
We will release the firmware after DEF CON 34. Mod it, extend it, build on it. It's yours.
