The Tinfoil-Hat Competition is coming to ChiBrrCon!!
It's going to be an absolute blast, and we're looking forward to all the crazy and creative hats everyone is going to build!
Checkout the Tin Foil Hat Competition site for the rules of the competition!The Tinfoil Hat Competition is a unique event that tests the signal attenuation properties of contestant-made tinfoil hats. Using professional RF testing equipment, we measure how effectively your hat blocks various radio frequencies.
How It Works
1. Create Your Hat
Design and build your tinfoil hat using any materials you choose. Be creative and innovative in your approach to RF shielding!
2. Test the Hat
You place your hat on our handy test dummy, and the hat will be tested using a HackRF One device, measuring signal attenuation from 1 MHz to 6 GHz.
3. Results & Scoring
We compare signal strength with and without the hat, calculating average attenuation in decibels (dB). The highest attenuation score in each category wins!
