Making money with Project Fugu

In this session, we will explore the power of hardware APIs, such as WebHID, WebUSB and WebSerial, and connect the browser to essential components such as a cash drawer, customer display, receipt printer and barcode scanner. We'll also touch on other new Project Fugu APIs like Idle Detection, Multi-screen Window Placement and Shape Detection. And finally, we will show how this works in practice with a live demonstration of all the components.

This is a deep dive into how to connect hardware devices to web apps, and show you how you would go about doing this for your own devices.

This talk is based on the demo I created that was featured during the Google I/O Connect events in 2023 in Miami and Amsterdam.
