What are the p2p technologies out there?


I want to develop a web-based application for my employer. The application will allow users to chat face to face using their webcam. I was really interested in rtmfp until I discovered that it is only good for one or two way conferencing according to http://www.adobe.com/devnet/adobe-media-server/articles/p2p_rtmfp_groups.html which means that only two people will be able to chat with each other just as chatroulette. But I want a multiple way conferencing. Thanks!


Solution

  • You might want to have a look at WebRTC. I haven't tried it, but here's the first multiuser demo that I'm aware of: https://github.com/webRTC/webRTC.io

    Some discussion about it (and how I know of the project) can be found in the webrtc-discuss Google Group at https://groups.google.com/d/topic/discuss-webrtc/26UNDNm-q0w/discussion

    For more information about WebRTC in general, see also:

    Good luck with your project!
