Overview
Coram Point offers real-time video streaming using WebRTC technology. This feature allows you to view live video with a latency of only 2 seconds.
Notes:
WebRTC streaming is only available for Timeline View, Personal Wall, and the Coram mobile app. The Coram team is continuously working to expand the availability of this feature.
Only users with admin rights can manage WebRTC settings.
Bandwidth Usage
Enabling WebRTC streaming can result in increased bandwidth usage. In order to achieve lower latency, Coram leverages peer-to-peer connections between Coram Point and your browser, so when multiple users are watching the same camera simultaneously, bandwidth usage adds up.
