Using Modern Browser APIs to Kill a Working Drone

The web is becoming the main means through which people interact with technologies. The modern browser is more than simply a way of viewing files; it has become a full-fledged application host – providing developers with a full set of capabilities to create transformative user experiences.

In this talk, Nhlanhla Lucky will show the power and ease of use of these browser APIs by flying a drone with fruits, Twitter, and hand-gestures; right from the browser.

If you're interested in developing enhanced user experiences, IoT, and custom controllers – all of this with JavaScript, this talk is for you.
