Streaming camera view to website in unity?

Question

I need to write a script that would take a camera's view of the scene and stream it to a website. Also this is in a local, secluded network at my workplace. Is this possible with a nodejs server?

Answer 1

It is possible, but you have to break it down :

• recording the screen (client-side)
• streaming to a server : sending the video (client-side : streamer)
• streaming to a server : receiving the video (server-side)
• serving a route for viewing the stream (server-side)
• viewer-logic (client-side : viewer)

The server would have 2 types of clients : streamer & viewers

Recording the screen becomes easier if you run the game client from a browser.

Then you can add extra logic to it : RecordRTC

RecordRTC: WebRTC JavaScript Library for Audio+Video+Screen Recording
