Webrtc Mipi Camera video streaming using i.MX 8M plus.

[kamalesh]

Hi,

I’m currently using the 6.6.52-scarthgap kernel and have successfully tested RTSP streaming with GStreamer on the i.MX8M Plus platform. While RTSP works fine, I’m aiming to further reduce latency and would like to explore using WebRTC instead.

Since many experts are here, I’d like to ask:
Is WebRTC a better option than RTSP for low-latency MIPI camera video streaming on this platform?

Additionally, could someone guide me on how to get started with WebRTC streaming using the Scarthgap Yocto image?

Thank you in advance for your support!

Regards,
Kamalesh

Hello,

For applications demanding low-latency media interactions, WebRTC is generally a better choice than RTSP. WebRTC's peer-to-peer architecture and use of protocols like RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) allow for significantly faster data transmission and lower latency. you can see:
