Using the Camera and Microphone

Q: Can I use the microphone / camera in a game streamed on the PureWeb Reality platform?

A: When the game is deployed through our console it's running on a cloud server and streaming to the user's web browser. There is no microphone or camera available on the cloud instance.

That doesn't mean you aren't able to integrate voice and video into your experience. Consider integrating camera and audio into your streaming experience through the web client, rather than directly in-game.

This could mean using a component outside of the game itself, such as MS Teams for video chat in a separate window in your web client. You could also use our SDK to send the voice and video from the web browser into the game package itself.

It truly depends on the needs of your experience.
