The main objective is to provide to each interested person a vulnerable board to improve their skill in hardware hacking. The board core is composed of an Atmega328p and an OLED screen. For each vulnerability, a firmware could be flashed on the Atmega328p in order to offer a specific vulnerable environment.

There are also ports for UART, Bluetooth, 2,4Ghz and Wifi. In every challenge, a specific extension board must be plugged to the main-board to solve it. Hacking requires attack tools like USBasp and USBuart.
