Video chat in browser

Web Call Server allows you to embed in your web project a video chat feature that will work without installing additional software in most modern web browsers, as well as on mobile devices

A video chat involves two users: a caller and a callee. The first one initiates the connection while the other one answers the incoming call.

Scheme of video chat

Each of video chat participants establishes connection with the server from the browser. After the connection is established, users can get in touch using video from their web cameras and microphones.

Step-by-step diagram of browser video chat

1. The first user (User 1) connects to the WCS server and creates a chat room. WCS server generates an invite link for inviting a second user
2. The first user sends an invite link to the second user (User 2) in any convenient way: by e-mail, using the messenger or social network
3. The second user follows the invite link and joins the chat room
4. WebRTC is exchanging audio-video streams between users

For more information on video chat operation in a browser, see the Testing page.
