WebRTC Video Conferencing

Based on Web Call Server, you can deploy video conferencing in a browser to three or more active participants

In conference mode, each of the users plays the video streams of the other participants, and the server manages connections to the “room” processing statuses and the distribution of video streams.

WebRTC video conferencing scheme

Users connect to WCS from browsers, desktops, tablets or smartphones. Each user sends a video stream to the server and then plays the video streams of the others connected to the conference. Thus, all participants fall into one “room”, where they can all see and hear each other.

WebRTC video conferencing step-by-step diagram

1. The first user (User 1) connects to the WCS server and creates a chat room. WCS server generates an invite link to invite the second and subsequent users
2. The first user sends an invite link to the second and subsequent users (User 2 and User 3) in any convenient way – by e-mail, using the messenger or social network
3. The second and subsequent users follow the invite link and join the chat room
4. WebRTC audio-video streams are exchanged between all conference participants

Thus, the WCS server receives one video stream from each of the browsers and distributes N-1 streams for playback to each browser, where N is the number of conference participants, in this case it is 3.

More information on testing the conference can be found on the Testing page.
