28C3 – Bring your r0ket

Wed, 21 Dec 2011 22:15:50 +0000

When packing for 28C3, don’t forget to bring your r0ket! (and a micro-USB cable!)

Among other things there will be a multiplayer tetris game on an LED wall you can play with your r0ket and new m0duls to boost your r0ket into new heights.

To access all new features of your r0ket have a look at http://r0ket.badge.events.ccc.de/init

The update contains an improved mesh network, l0dables for interactive installations and support for the next flame generation.

Good news for those who didn’t get one on camp – or want more: Team r0ket will be selling new, slightly improved r0kets for 30 Euros and RGB flame m0dules for 10 Euros on 28C3.

They will also bring several USB missile launchers for a hardware hacking competition – the goal is to combine the missile launcher with your r0ket. If you are one of the first 100 people to publish a cool hack, you can keep the launcher for free!
