APIs for adding voice, data and video to your apps … for FREE

v  Brings together VoIP and web

v  Free

v WebRTC is not about hype, it’s about disrupting communications

Why do we care about WebRTC ?

WebRTC is a new API for embedding real-time communications into web sites and browser-based applications.

Voice, Video and even Screen Sharing

become standard capabilities of the modern web browser.

WebRTC API ?

v A JavaScript extension

v GetUserMedia function v Acquiring audio and video

v  PeerConnection object v  Set up the network connection between peers

v DataChannel v  « direct WebSocket between peers »

Architecture

Adapted from "WebRTC: APIs and RTCWeb Protocols of the HTML5 Real-Time Web", Johnson, Alan B. and Daniel C. Burnett, First Edition, September 2012, Digital Codex LLC)

Signaling

v WebRTC is a peer to peer technology but servers are needed

v To set up the connection between peers

v Signaling stays out of the scope of WebRTC

v WebSockets, XHR, etc.

v SIP, XMPP, JSON, etc.

WebRTC out of the browser

v Build your own endpoint

v getUserMedia

v PeerConnection

v pjsip, FreeSWITCH, Kamailio, Asterisk

v Place calls from a web browser to a plain old telephone

v Can run on any Linux platform (Raspberry Pi too !)

v Implemented in C

WebRTC with « traditional » VoIP

v Works fine but …

v WebRTC is not implemented in all browsers

v Chrome, Firefox, Opera

v  IE, Safari and others missing

v Adobe Flash plugin helps a lot here

Demo

Is WebRTC the Future of Communications?

What do we need ?

v Massive developer adoption

v Device enablement

v Vendor ecosystem

Developers

1,300,000 enabled devices
