CONNECTING GESTURE RECOGNITION WITH WEBRTC

A computer-implemented method for identifying gestures in video from video conferencing applications is provided. The method comprises causing capture, by a video feed capture service, of data from a video conference session running on a video conferencing application. The method further comprises causing to write, by the video feed capture service, the data to a cache queue. A cache queue processing service moves the data from the cache queue to a location in shared memory. A gesture recognition service reads the data from the location in shared memory to determine whether a gesture is present within a video frame from the data. The gesture recognition service identifies a first gesture in the data. The method further comprises causing to send to the video conferencing application, by the gesture recognition service, the first gesture.
