💡 Inspiration
Live Streaming is one of the wonders 2020 will be remembered for. I can count how many times I've heard the phrase "Live Streaming is the Next Thing" in the past few months. Moreover, everyday we're seeing people from every background join the streaming community. Be it well to do people like comedians, sports personalites, magicians, life coaches, gurus & also developers or ordinary people looking for a career, everyone is booming with the help of live streaming.
😖 The Problem
The reason for it being loved by people is the rawness & interactivity. People feel more connected while watching streams. BUT, it all comes with its own downsides. I've seen many streamers messing up live by leaking phone numbers, sensitive information or private conversations unknowingly. Afterall, the lack of control & rawness isn't always good for the streamer.
🚀 The Solution
Hence, in order to avoid these Sneaky Leaks from messing up live streams & even entire careers at times, we have created a Machine Learning based feature which detects what you're doing and toggles the audio or video accordingly. Currently we've trained it to perform the following tasks:
- Checks whether you're whering headphones & mute your microphone accordingly.
- Turns the video off when you're not in frame to avoid your background conversations being overheard.
- Mutes the microphone when it sees that you're on a phone call to prevent sensitive conversations from being leaked.
