The only thing harder than building a WebRTC application is testing it. All software needs to work on a variety of platforms, in different hardware and network configurations, and at various levels of user load. Testing a web or mobile video application is more complicated because it’s
Let’s build your WebRTC web or mobile application! You’ve decided to build a real-time communications application. Now what? Building a live video application is not as simple as it appears, even with the many APIs out there now. How will you develop, design, deploy, scale and test
Taking WebRTC Video calling to the next step involves providing more functionality and custom behavior to our video conferencing applications. We’ve experimented with using the HTML canvas to add more customization to our video calls, and we’ve found that gives us a lot of power. In this post, we look at leveraging the Vonage Video API with the power of HTML canvas to apply virtual backgrounds to our video calls.
