Altering the real world with JavaScript
summary
Phones stream sensor yaw and pitch to a Node.js server that mixes data into procedural music and survives roughly ten simultaneous connections before the server starts to struggle, producing realtime BPM and pitch changes; Bluetooth Low Energy beacons broadcast iBeacon-style UUID/major/minor and three-beacon triangulation estimates a baby’s position for a JavaScript baby monitor that can trigger alarms; a DIY Mozilla Glass prototype uses camera + WebRTC, voice control (Andreas Gal voice), and augmented-reality name overlays but demos are flaky.
