  • Hacking the badge can go into several parts of the badge.

  • The firmware is update from the previous Hackaday Belgrade Badge.
  • And it has an additional feature which is to be also a USB mass storage device.
  • However, it is not shown in the article on how big the storage is.
  • I assume that it as big as the memory in PIC micro controller.
