web_video_server
A ROS node that streams robot camera feeds and image topics over HTTP in multiple video formats for web browser viewing.
What is web_video_server?
web_video_server is a ROS node that streams image topics from robotics systems over HTTP in multiple video formats like MJPEG, VP8, VP9, and H264. It allows developers to view real-time camera feeds and sensor data directly in web browsers without requiring special plugins, simplifying remote monitoring and debugging of robots.
Robotics developers and researchers working with ROS or ROS 2 who need to visualize robot camera feeds, sensor data, or image topics remotely via web interfaces.
It provides a lightweight, plugin-based solution that supports multiple streaming formats and adjustable parameters, making it easy to integrate robot visualization into web applications without complex setup or proprietary tools.
