WebRTC Update 2017 - a full day of realtime communications!

Welcome to the WebRTC Forum Stockholm!

We have put together a full day of tutorials and talks about WebRTC - the new HTML5 standard for making the web come alive with realtime video and audio between web browsers. By giving the browser access to the camera and the microphone on mobile phones and computers, a whole new breed of applications can be created.

The detailed agenda is still being worked on but here's some of the goodies:

9.00-9.30 Hello and welcome with tea and coffee

9.30-10.30 WebRTC Tutorial

A brief introduction to WebRTC standards - protocols, API's and the relationship to the voice over IP world, like the SIP protocol.

15.00 WebRTC for a Web-centric Service Architecture

The ReTHINK project is designing and prototyping a Web-centric (non telecom centric) P2P Service Architecture supporting use-cases beyond commoditized telephony, such as contextual and social communications, M2M/IoT and content oriented services. Participants include Quobis, Portugal Telecom, Orange, Deutsche Telekom and Fraunhofer Fokus.
WebRTC is a key technology in the project, this talk will explain how it's used to enable dynamic trusted relationships among distributed applications and multimedia sessions.
