Client-Server Application for Real-Time Video Streaming

This paper presents the design and implementation of a client-server application for real-time video data transfer between two devices. A large number of real-time video data transfer techniques already exist. Movie and media platforms, video conferencing and webinars, video surveillance and even video calling use real-time video data transfer techniques. How-ever, most applications in the fields mentioned above use proprietary solutions, offering limited or no access to the techniques. This paper details the work to design, implement and evaluate a client-server system that can be used to further develop advanced features and applications that need to transfer video data in real-time. Our performance tests indicate that the created system is able to transfer video data with at least 24 frames per second on two target platforms. Performance evaluations shows dependencies on compute, network bandwidth and storage as influenced by the target hardware devices. Therefore, this paper describes a system that can be used as framework in the development of real-time video data transfer applications
