How Does Dynamsoft Webcam SDK Work

The SDK includes two core modules: JavaScript library and webcam service:

• JavaScript Library runs within a web browser. It communicates with the webcam Windows Service via HTTP. It accepts and sends users’ operation requests to the webcam service, and processes results from the service.
• Webcam Service listens on 127.0.0.1 and handles the interface with cameras (via UVC) and passes the response to the JavaScript layer.
