Aircraft radar system in JavaScript

This project uses the Web USB API, a RTL-SDR dongle + antenna and some vanilla JS code.

How to run

As it doesn't use any front-end framework, you can start it quickly by running:

npm start

and opening your browser on http://localhost:1234

Also, this version:

• Shows notifications when a new airplane is spotted
• Stores the data in the indexedDB for later usage

Credits

This project probably wouldn't have been possible if I hadn't come across AirplaneJS and rtl-sdr by Thomas Watson and rtlsdrjs by Sandeep Mistry. 💜
