TelePi

TelePi is an open-source telepresence platform that allows people to log-into robots and be able to control them remotely in a seamless manner.

Requirements

  • Extendable
  • Multi-user
  • Multiple hardware

Progress

  • Still gathering requirements and doing initial technology tests

Technical details

Streaming protocols analysis

Gstreamer
  • Pros
    • Very fast - HW accelerated
    • Flexible to develop upon
  • Cons
    • Tricky to display in browser

MJPEG

  • Pros
    • Great browser support in every browser
    • Speed to be tested, but should be decent
  • Cons
    • High bitrate (~2mbit/s at 720p 15fps)
    • Video only, need a separate solution for audio

ffmpeg + RMTP + JWplayer

  • Pros
    • Decent browser support
  • Cons
    • High latency
    • Needs flash, so won't work on IOS and some browsers
