The story

Temporal built 2,000 hackable electronic badges for its Replay conference (Moscone, San Francisco, May 2026): an ESP32-S3 board with an OLED screen, an 8x8 LED matrix and a joystick, with open-source firmware on GitHub and apps (Doom included) preloaded. The back of the PCB is etched with Ziggy, Temporal's tardigrade mascot, as an astronaut. The engineer behind it wrote a making-of titled 'I haven't slept since December'.

What stands out

Open firmware plus a hidden mascot on the back makes a badge something to flip over, show off and keep hacking.

For your next brief

What would you hide on the back of your swag for the people curious enough to look?
