Everyday HTML5 evolves at a faster and faster pace. New features are added to the platform in one browser, others are standardized across all browsers and polyfills are built to support some legacy browsers. These new capabilities allow developers to build a whole new suite of applications - things that were once impossible to do, are now a reality.
Join the Google Chrome Developer Relations team as they show you what’s possible with new features like the HTML5 MIDI API, or how you can do real time audio analysis with the Web Audio API and getUserMedia - without the need for a plug-in to access the web cam or microphone. We’ll also show you how Chrome Apps allow you to build installed desktop apps using HTML5 can access native hardware capabilities like USB, Bluetooth and even open TCP or UDP sockets.
