Hello everyone! @robotics101 here. It is with great pleasure that I finally announce the arrival of the SteemSTEM badges!

You will probably see some of these on pictures during the on-going meetup :)

These luminous badges bearing the SteemSTEM logo were created by myself, @robotics101, following direction from @zest, so that you can proudly display your love for SteemSTEM at your next events! I hope you will like them :)

Context:

At the beginning of June and I had set myself the objective of learning how to create printed circuit board (PCB) before the end of the summer, so that I could use this skill in my next projects. After creating some PCBs by following various tutorials on the Web, I started looking for a first project that would allow me to test what I just learned. I was looking for a project that was not too complex but useful (since I have to order many units when I have the printed circuits manufactured).

So I decided to create a hardware badge based on the SteemSTEM logo, inspired by the hardware badges used by various conferences and events (DEFCON, MakerFaire, etc.). After receiving the prototypes of the first version we were able to make some adjustments to improve the badge as the iterations progressed. The one shown on the photo at the beginning of the article is part of the second batch of badges.

We will talk, in a follow-up article on my blog about the details behind the design and manufacturing part of the badge. For now, we will instead focus on the different models and how you can get them!

How to get yours?

For this first series, I have a limited number of badges, so there will be only a few on sale that you can buy with SBD or STEEM.

Here is the available stock:

• 6 badges in multi-color (see this video);
• 6 single-color badges in green, blue, white, red or yellow (see below).

Once we are out of stock, you will be notified in the comments of this article and I will send you a message when they will be available again.

To order yours, simply complete this form and send the correct number of STEEM or SBD to my account, @robotics101, according to these rules:

• 8.5 STEEM / 7 SBD per badge (6 STEEM / 5 SBD if you want to solder it yourself);
• 2.5 STEEM / 2 SBD per order for delivery.

For example, if you want to order 2 of them, this gives: 2x7+2 = 16 SBD.

Do you want a personalized ones?

If you would like to have similar badges for your community, feel free to contact me on discord ( @Tristan#195) or by mail ( contact (at) 101robotics (dot) com) !

Thanks to the @steemstem management for letting me post this article from the steemstem account :)
