Bridging the web and the physical world

" summary

Claims that the web can talk to hardware now via Web Bluetooth (BLE/GATT, Bluetooth 4.x, promises and typed arrays) and Web USB (bulk/interrupt/isochronous transfers). Demos actually connect: a tiny tile and Daydream controller expose sensors, a web-hosted IDE runs JavaScript on the device, reads temperature and drives RGB LEDs in real time. APIs are shipping in Chrome (Web Bluetooth already, Web USB just landed to stable) and generic sensors is moving as an origin trial.
