WebRTC Video v1.0, low-latency video streaming from robots
After streaming over 25,000 hours and 13 TB of video from over 200 robots, 2 years of production use by over a dozen customers, 200,000 sessions, 25 minor releases, and 120 patch releases, we believe it is time to declare WebRTC Video stable. Recent improvements included in v1.0: - vastly increased robustness over poor networks (packet loss, bandwidth fluctuation), - added hardware acceleration for Intel chipsets such as HD Graphics (in addition to the existing Nvidia and RockChip support), - added local mode, allowing offline usage on local networks, - 3x less CPU usage when using software…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
After streaming over 25,000 hours and 13 TB of video from over 200 robots, 2 years of production use by over a dozen customers, 200,000 sessions, 25 minor releases, and 120 patch releases, we believe it is time to declare WebRTC Video stable. Recent improvements included in v1.0: - vastly increased robustness over poor networks (packet loss, bandwidth fluctuation), - added hardware acceleration for Intel chipsets such as HD Graphics (in addition to the existing Nvidia and RockChip support), - added local mode, allowing offline usage on local networks, - 3x less CPU usage when using software encoder, - much improved CPU efficiency when using ROS topics as video source, - support for ROS topics carrying pre-encoded h264 video, - increased data savings when scene is static, - many ease-of-use improvements, incl. auto-bitrate and better error recovery. At this point we believe this is the best video-streaming solution available in the market for robots, and cheaper than many alternatives by a margin. Please let us know if you disagree. If on top of this you need channel bonding (e.g., dual SIM), please reach out.

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
