Wi-Fi Camera — An Android Webcam for Windows
Turns an Android phone into a Windows webcam, streaming video over the local network without cloud services or OBS.
The task was to use a phone camera in video calls and a browser as a regular webcam.
The Android application sends video over the home network to a Windows receiver. On the computer, it appears as Wi-Fi Camera and can be selected in an application or browser. Pairing is confirmed with a code, and controls are available on the computer.
The local control panel includes a preview and snapshots.
Result: live video transmission verified through DirectShow and Chrome WebRTC, and operation in Zoom without OBS. Audio capture and AVI creation on a physical phone.
Technologies: Kotlin, CameraX, Python, Pillow, HTTP and Unity Capture / DirectShow.
