Description

Description

These two APIs let web developers convert a real time video MediaStreamTrack to and from a stream of VideoFrames respectively. This simplifies real time video processing in JavaScript. Usage includes processing of outgoing video for support of visual effects (blur, custom backgrounds). The Processor side handles the receiving end of video from input devices, and the generator side handles the plumbing of piping a processed video stream out over the network. The APIs are complimentary in this respect.
