BornHack

BornHack (a portmanteau of Bornholm and hack) is an annual hacker camp on the Danish island of Funen, near Gelsted. From 2016 to 2018, it was organized on Bornholm.



History
In 2021, the BornHack electronic badge was based on a perfboard due to the chip shortage. The 2021 camp was also captured on Google Maps arial pictures.

In 2022, Thomas Flummer developed a badge based on the RP2040, for which software can be developed in CircuitPython.

During BornHack there is a field specifically designed for loud noise, with a noise barrier made from soil. A Dutch hacker brought an old civil defense siren for testing purposes. Within a few minutes, four separate phone calls were made from houses in a large distance from BornHack to the Danish police.
