What if your software knew about its environment and could react? With very basic electronics skills, and the ability to read a datasheet, you can be well on your way to a smarter and more responsive application. We will discuss some common hardware protocols and how to interface your code with them to build something even more cool.

Bricks.js is fast modular framework built on node.js. This session will be a mix of an introduction for those who have not used it, and building a fairly simple application using it.
