" summary

Browser receives a live heart rate streamed to Chrome and controls real devices via the WebBluetooth API using navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice to get services and characteristics, readValue and writeValue with byte arrays. Demos include a 4‑byte RGB lightbulb variant, an LED matrix pixel control driven by indexed RGB values, a receipt printer that prints tweets, a Lego car with a Bluetooth receiver, and even a drone flown from browser; notes on packet sniffing, decompiling APKs, interference and missing documentation.
