Use your Android / iOS smartphone as webcam

@Korben -

If you have an Android / iOS smartphone and a camera or webcam shortage at home, I have what you need.This is called Droidcam, and it is an application for Android / iPhone + Windows / Linux customer that allows you to transform your smartphone into a camera.

You install Droidcam on one side (on the smartphone), the customer who is going well by going download it here and then just put your computer and your smartphone on the same WiFi network or connected with a USB cable.

Once the IP address of your smartphone entry into the Windows / Linux customer, you will then see the video flow of the phone on the phone.This video stream will then be used by configuring in your usual tools (zoom, skype, obs, etc.) the use of the right -wing webcam.You can even recover the sound of the microphone (even Bluetooth).

In its free version, the tool is very basic but it can help out.Note that the smartphone remains usable even if Droidcam is used (in the background therefore…).

There is also a paid pro version that will bring you more functionality on camera controls, flow quality, etc.

Have fun !
