Running Face recoginition in Android device chrome browser

[RanjitSachin]

I'm using Ubuntu machine with Webcam for Face recognition and its working fine. Now I'm opening the same appliation in Android device chrome browser.

Expectation: Application should use default camera from Android device instead of webcam. How to do this?

Hi RanjitSachin,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Are you planning to use the camera from an Android device and run the Face recognition application on the Ubuntu machine with OpenVINO™ Toolkit? 

If yes, you may use an IP Webcam to turn your phone into a network camera and use it as input for the application.

For more information on IP cameras, please refer to:

Hi Wan,

Thank you for the quick reply and suggestion.

I installed IPWebcam Android app, and configured this stream URL into the openvino camera option. Its working as expected. But the streaming is lagging very much.

ie., Sending Android tablet video stream to OpenVINO and again getting the same stream back to Android app. This is not a right architecture.  We should directly read it wherever we are running the application. It should read default camera app. 

Can't we run OpenVINO application in React JS like Tensorflow js?

Thank you. Have a good day
