I have a very simple panel created as a dashboard to control a test rig. I have two pages, the first has some gauges, indicators and input for controls. The second page I would like to use to display live video from a 30fps USB webcam attached to the local computer running the panel. I have looked into some of the widgets like video stream and video but neither of them seem to work for what I am trying to accomplish. Is there a simple way to do this that I am missing?
PC 1 (Server): Running the panel and some back-end processes to control the rig. Has a USB webcam plugged into it.
PC 2 (Client): View panel webapp using LAN ip. No webcam attached
I want to be able to view the webcam on that server with any client viewing the panel. It is my understanding that the video stream widget is only used to get video data from the client’s camera.
