In simple terms, WebRTC is the technology that provides peer-to-peer communication between web browsers and mobile applications. It is known as Web Real-Time Communication, which refers to open-source projects and allows transmission of audio, video, and data.

WebRTC developers mention that it is simple yet complex technology. The essence of simplicity comes down to the ease of implementation. It’s possible to use five to ten lines of code to organize peer-to-peer video communication between two browsers. At the same time, there is always a “but” when we work with technologies.

In the…

Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is among the top 10 most used protocols in the Internet of Things (IoT) industry. It has a vast legacy behind it, having been used for over two decades before. Even today, it receives significant attention thanks to its lightweight, open-source nature and accessibility. IoT devices can communicate through it despite spotty network conditions.

Even though the latest version, MQTT 5, officially became OASIS standard in 2019, not many users have transitioned from the previous v3.1.1 MQTT. …

This article was written based on our research and expertise in building real-time video processing products, together with creating pipelines for applying Machine Learning and Deep Learning models.

When it comes to real-time video processing, the data pipeline becomes more complex to handle. And we are striving to minimize latency in streaming video. On the other hand, we must also ensure sufficient accuracy of the implemented models.

Overall, the live streaming industry has increased up to 99% in hours watched since last year according to dailyesports.gg statistics. So, it will totally change fan experience, gaming, telemedicine, etc. Moreover, Grand View…

The Internet of Things plays a key role in digital transformation. However, in many cases, organizations realize that they already have a large fleet of legacy IoT devices that have been gradually deployed over the years. Many of these devices may not have been designed with security in mind.

One of the biggest concerns of IoT is managing the risks associated with a growing number of IoT devices. Information security and privacy issues related to IoT devices have attracted global attention, because of the ability of these devices to interact with the physical world. …

What helps people overcome obstacles? Crushing obstacles is hard work. It requires a lot of planning, time management, inner fire, and a thorough understanding of your goals.

Without your objective in mind, it’s difficult to dig deep and push forward. Vision makes all the difference when you have a clear goal and know exactly how to accomplish it. Discipline, combined with a managerial approach, can help you overcome obstacles during these uncertain times.

Joe and Lin, two friends from childhood, own a mid-sized business in New York. …

I hate shopping in brick and mortar stores. However, my interest in virtual shopping is not only limited to the buyer experience. With the MobiDev DataScience department, I’ve gained experience in working on AI technologies for virtual fitting. The goal of this article is to describe how these systems work from the inside.

How Virtual Fitting Technology Works

A few years ago, the “try before you buy” strategy was an efficient customer engagement method in outfit stores. Now, this strategy exists in the form of virtual fitting rooms. Fortune Business Insights predicted that the virtual fitting room market size is expected to reach 10.00 …

I know for sure that human behavior could be predicted with data science and machine learning. People lie — data does not. Taking a look at human behavior from a sales data analysis perspective, we can get more valuable insights than from social surveys.

In this article, I want to show how machine learning approaches can help with customer demand forecasting. Since I have experience in building forecasting models for retail field products, I’ll use a retail business as an example.

Moreover, considering uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, I’ll also describe how to enhance forecasting accuracy.

And don’t worry…
