This project contains a Node.JS server to be run in Node For Max. Node serves a webpage over the local network, and the webpage receives IMU values from a mobile phone and sends the values to Max via websockets.
Requirements:

Instructions:
- Create SSL certificate for the HTTPS server. The key should be named "server.key" and the certificate should be named "server.cert". For MacOS/Linux:
openssl req -nodes -new -x509 -days 2000 -keyout server.key -out server.cert- note that you can set another number after the -days flag; this is how long the certificate will be valid
- SSL certificate fields:
- For "Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or your name)" enter localhost
- For email address, enter your email
