Weapons grade React

Talkat React London 2017 · on Tuesday, 2017-03-28· [react-native]

A remotely controlled robotic crossbow gets built and mostly works: an Arduino‑based rig with 50 lb draw weight, a linear actuator pulling the trigger through two relays, RobotGeek servos for pan/tilt, and a laser. It runs off a single 9V battery, communicates over Bluetooth LE with an hm10 module, and a React Native app (using react native Bluetooth seral) sends velocity-style joystick coordinates; the homemade demo hardware is fragile and fires inconsistently.
