Tagged: InteropServices_15, Standards G11, SW_IDE_S7
WebRTC, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standard for next-gen real time communications, and an open source project created by Google, earlier this month hosted a webinar sharing various use cases where WebRTC enhances the IoT and IIoT.
Given restful APIs, WebRTC makes it easier for third parties to develop embedded communications applications, sometimes using sensor data to trigger a message, alert, voice session or video collaboration.
WebRTC can also simply be used as a channel to send data using encryption techniques which makes that transmission more secure than a typical Web Sockets server.
WebRTC can send emergency alerts, data sensor measurements, and other commands while transmitting data from one location to another, or to a centralized hub.
