Chaospager: How to construct an Open Pager System for c3
Max, Julian
39th Chaos Communication Congress (39C3): Power Cycles · Day 2 · Saal One
This talk, "Chaospager: How to construct an Open Pager System for C3," delves into the ambitious project of developing an entirely custom, open-source pager system designed specifically for large-scale events like the Chaos Communication Congress (C3). Presented by Max and Julian, representing a workgroup of passionate engineers from Hamburg, the project addresses the critical need for a robust, easy-to-use, and reliable communication system for emergency responders, often referred to as "angels," at such complex gatherings. The initiative was primarily driven by the **TEAT** (Emergency Response Team at C3 events), who sought an integrated and resilient paging solution.
