## What it is
A Go service that streams RTSP camera feeds to web browsers over WebRTC using Pion, without ffmpeg or gstreamer. It serves an HTTP endpoint and supports H264 video with PCM alaw/mulaw audio.

## Use cases
- view RTSP IP camera streams in a browser
- stream security cameras over WebRTC
- play RTSP video in Chrome Safari Firefox
- low-latency camera feed web viewer
- convert RTSP stream to WebRTC without ffmpeg

## When to choose
- you need native WebRTC playback of RTSP H264 streams with minimal dependencies
- you want a lightweight self-hosted camera-to-browser bridge

## When to avoid
- you need broader protocol support or a better API - the author recommends RTSPtoWeb instead
- you need codecs other than H264 or advanced audio support

## Facets
- artifact type: service
