Edge capture
Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W captures camera output and publishes a live RTSP stream toward the Ubuntu server.
Architecture
Phase 1 architecture at a glance
The initial system is intentionally narrow: prove live transport, browser playback, and deployment automation before adding storage, recording, and analytics.
Media gateway
MediaMTX accepts ingest, exposes WebRTC playback, and becomes the boundary for low-latency viewing.
Application layer
ASP.NET Core owns health, stream metadata, auth, and future session authorization APIs.
Viewer app
Next.js provides the operator control room, stream status, and future live player screens.
