<p>“This repo's objective is providing something like Web Cam server on the most popular Raspberry PI hardware. By integrating <a href=“[https://webrtc.org/native-code/](https://webrtc.org/native-code/”>WebRTC</a>) and Raspberry PI, we can stream the Raspberry camera feed to browser or native client which talks WebRTC.” https://github.com/kclyu/rpi-webrtc-streamer you can used the deb repo for compiled ready to run version ` Stream the #RaspberryPi camera module through your browser http://www.recantha.co.uk/blog/?p=4165 serious comments https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/7446/how-can-i-stream-h-264-video-from-the-raspberry-pi-camera-module-via-a-web-serve</p>
