LiveStream-WebRTC-Flask-OpenCV

New version <src_updated> in progress...

Previous version :

My medium story contains the following:

  • The detailed tutorial on how to build this app from scratch.
  • How to customize the app for your own needs.
  • Instructions to follow.
  • Troubleshooting tips.

Prerequisistes

  • Webcam/ IP camera

  • A server machine and a client machine (smartphone, pc, etc.) connected to the same network.

    pip install Flask

    pip install opencv-python-headless

    pip install aiortc

To run

  • Server Side

    git clone https://github.com/supersjgk/LiveStream-WebRTC-Flask-OpenCV

    cd src

    python server.py OR python3 server.py

  • Client Side
    To view the live stream from a Server's webcam/IP camera in a client machine, simply open a web browser and type http://127.0.0.1:<port>/ (client on same machine) OR http://<server_IP_address>:<port>/ (client on different machine).

Note

  • Camera access should be enabled on Server
  • Client machine should be connected to the same network as the server machine.
  • Set host and port according to your needs. Port should not be running any other processes (details to fix conflicting ports in story)
