Fun with Bluetooth @ Amsterdam JSNation

Time for the browser to get physical. With WebBluetooth the browser can actually take control of all kinds of physical devices in the real world like lightbulbs, robots and even drones. This talk will teach you the basics that you need to get started.

  1. classic bluetooth the reason everybody 
 hates bluetooth bluetooth low

    energy vs. control drones and other cool shit
  2. navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice({ filters: [ { namePrefix: 'PLAYBULB' } ], optionalServices: [

    0xff0f ] }) .then(device => device.gatt.connect()) .then(server => server.getPrimaryService(0xff0f)) .then(service => service.getCharacteristic(0xfffc)) .then(characteristic => { return characteristic.writeValue( new Uint8Array([ 0x00, r, g, b ]) ); }) we tell the browser what 
 kind of device we want
  3. navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice({ filters: [ { namePrefix: 'PLAYBULB' } ], optionalServices: [

    0xff0f ] }) .then(device => device.gatt.connect()) .then(server => server.getPrimaryService(0xff0f)) .then(service => service.getCharacteristic(0xfffc)) .then(characteristic => { return characteristic.writeValue( new Uint8Array([ 0x00, r, g, b ]) ); }) get the characteristic get the service connect to the server
  4. navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice({ ... }) .then(device => device.gatt.connect()) .then(server => server.getPrimaryService(0xff0f)) .then(service

    => service.getCharacteristic(0xfffc)) .then(c => { return c.writeValue( new Uint8Array([ 0x00, r, g, b ]) ); }) write some bytes
  5. navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice({ ... }) .then(device => device.gatt.connect()) .then(server => server.getPrimaryService(0xff0f)) .then(service

    => service.getCharacteristic(0xfffc)) .then(c => c.readValue()) .then(value => { let r = value.getUint8(1); let g = value.getUint8(2); let b = value.getUint8(3); }) read some bytes
  6. navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice({ ... }) .then(device => device.gatt.connect()) .then(server => server.getPrimaryService(0xff0f)) .then(service

    => service.getCharacteristic(0xfffc)) .then(c => { c.addEventListener('characteristicvaluechanged', e => { let r = e.target.value.getUint8(1); let g = e.target.value.getUint8(2); let b = e.target.value.getUint8(3); }); c.startNotifications(); }) add event listener don't forget to start listening
  7. writing a value: function(r, g, b) { return new Uint8Array([

    0x00, r, g, b ]); } reading a value: function(buffer) { return { 
 r: buffer.getUint8(1), 
 g: buffer.getUint8(2), 
 b: buffer.getUint8(3) 
 } } writing to and reading
 from the same characteristic
  8. writing a value: function(r, g, b) { return new Uint8Array([

    0x01, g, 0x01, 0x00, 0x01, 
 b, 0x01, r, 0x01, 0x00 
 ]); } reading the current 
 color is not possible
  9. writing a value: 
 function(r, g, b) { var buffer

    = new Uint8Array([ 
 0xaa, 0x0a, 0xfc, 0x3a, 0x86, 0x01, 0x0d, 
 0x06, 0x01, r, g, b, 0x00, 0x00, 
 (Math.random() * 1000) & 0xff, 0x55, 0x0d 
 ]); for (var i = 1; i < buffer.length - 2; i++) { buffer[15] += buffer[i]; } return buffer; } reading the current 
 color is not possible
  10. writing a value: 
 function(r, g, b, position) { let

    buffer = new Uint8Array([ 0x07, 0x02, position + 1, r, g, b ]); return buffer; }
  11. writing a value: 
 function(r, g, b, position) { let

    buffer = new Uint8Array([ 0x58, r, g, b, 0x01, position ]); ...
  12. writing a value: 
 function(r, g, b, position) { let

    buffer = new Uint8Array([ 0x58, r, g, b, 0x01, position ]); let payload = new Uint8Array(buffer.length + 4); payload[0] = payload.length - 2; payload[1] = payload.length - 2 >>> 8; payload.set(buffer, 2); let checksum = payload.reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0); payload[payload.length - 2] = checksum; payload[payload.length - 1] = checksum >>> 8; let extra = payload.filter(value => {

  13. message[m] = 0x03; message[m + 1] = 0x05; m +=

    2; } else if (payload[i] === 0x03) { message[m] = 0x03; message[m + 1] = 0x06; m += 2; } else { message[m] = payload[i]; m++; } } message[0] = 0x01; message[message.length - 1] = 0x02; return message; }
