Amazon Kinesis Video Streams now offers the ability to stream real-time audio and video to multiple concurrent viewers via WebRTC, while also recording video and audio from the session to the cloud for storage, playback, and analytical processing. With this update, developers can enable up to 3 concurrent viewers of real-time feeds from cameras or other video-producing devices without increasing compute or bandwidth utilization on the device. In addition, participants can engage in audio conversations with each other, enabling direct real-time communication between viewers during the session.
Developers can now build real-time peer-to-peer streaming applications by installing the Amazon Kinesis Video Streams with WebRTC SDK across security cameras, IoT devices, PCs, and mobile devices. Using the APIs, developers can create applications that stream real-time media to multiple concurrent viewers. They can develop solutions for scenarios such as home security applications sharing camera feeds with family members, remote proctoring systems with multiple monitoring operators, or robot operation control centers with audit capabilities. Developers can implement both live and on-demand video playback through session recording, and build advanced applications utilizing computer vision and video analytics by integrating with Amazon Rekognition Video and Amazon SageMaker.
Amazon Kinesis Video Streams WebRTC Multi-Viewer is available in all regions where Amazon Kinesis Video Streams is available, except the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions and the China (Beijing, operated by Sinnet) Region.
