Live Streaming Technology

Live streaming technology allows real-time broadcasting of audio and video content over the internet. Using a camera and microphone, the video is captured and sent to a streaming server, which then distributes it to viewers' devices. This enables events like sports games, concerts, or webinars to be shared live with a global audience. Viewers can watch on various devices, often with interactive features like chat. Key components include encoding (converting video into a suitable format), protocols for transmission, and platforms for hosting the stream, such as YouTube, Twitch, or social media.
