OSH Park will be producing electronic conference badges for the 2018 Open Hardware Summit on September 27th at MIT
The current concept is to have:
- SiFive FE310 microcontroller which implements the RISC-V instruction set
- E-Paper to display the badge wearer's name
- Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) module to allow badge wearer to update the displayed text from an Android or iOS phone
- Alternate idea: use NFC instead of BLE
Quantity 300 badges are required for OHS 2018 on September 27th.
Maximum total budget per badge is: $25 (that will have to include components, batteries, PCB, assembly, lanyard, packaging)
Production plan: The badge circuit boards will be pick-n-place assembled by a professional assembly service. A test jig will need to be created for the assembler to test the badges.
Production deadline: September 1st, 2018
