The web in an era of smart devices

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Claims that the web already supports offline, app‑like smart device experiences using service worker, progressive web apps and standard APIs. Demonstrations show web Bluetooth talking to a Polar heart‑rate monitor and beaconing via Eddystone, and WebUSB enumerating and programming a USB sensor (Seafor OS) with JavaScript; both work in Chrome (BLE on Android/Chromebook/Mac, Windows support lagging; WebUSB shipping on desktop and Android). Generic Sensor API, NFC and barcode/shape detection are moving through origin trials and should ship within months to a year.
