====r0ket====
r0ket is an electronic name tag and much more. 

  * Proudly display your nick on  [[https://events.ccc.de/camp/2011/wiki/Main_Page|Camp 2011]] and future events
  * Have fun with the camp-applications or alternate firmwares
  * Use it as foundation for your own microelectronics project 
  * Provide an interesting component as a [[m0dul]] for your event or workshop and rely on r0ket for the basics like display, CPU, power supply and RF
  * Rapidly develop for and with diverse hardware by combining extensions designed by the community

====Motivation====
After collecting lots of badges from different events (defcon, hope, troopers 11, eh2010, ...), each with it's own great features and applications, the following went through our heads:

  * It's a pity that you usually can't use them again for a different event
  * Development after the event is rare and little acknowledged
  * Usually you end up with heaps of empty batteries
  * Most of the budget goes to standard parts, reinventing the same basic functionality again and again

====Features====
r0ket aims to be a really useful event badge in itself while also providing a solid foundation for future extensions

  * Based on ARM Cortex M3 32-Bit microcontroller
  * Unbrickable, no-programmer-needed USB-bootloader
  * High capacity lithium-polymer battery, rechargeable via USB
  * 2.4 GHz radio interface (and maybe optical communication, be surprised)
  * Sockets for extensions ([[m0dul|m0duls]] and hackerbus)
