Requirements


The next logical step is to break the problem statement into pieces so that we can attack them one by one, or we may luckily find some solution that solves all parts of the problem. Hardware requirements are already mentioned. So, here is the breakdown:

  • Capture video data from the web camera

  • Encode video data

  • Push packed video data to network

  • Receive video data from network

  • Play the received video data

Software fulfilling these types of requirements are called multimedia frameworks. In the OSS world, they have such frameworks. The most popular of these is GStreamer. We used it in Chapter 4, Adding Multimedia to Your Board.
