Video Chat: innovative ZEGOCLOUD SDK

Video chat has been a part of our lives for over a decade. Also known as a video call or video conference, this term derives precisely from the evolution of text-based chats.

With the integration of two-way video technology, the use of video chat became widespread: it is, therefore, face-to-face visual communication online.

Video chat and video conference

Although video chat refers primarily to point-to-point interaction, it can also be used for multipoint (one-to-many) interactions. This distinguishes between video chat and video conferencing.

We have already had a chance to clarify the difference.

What makes it possible to include video chat in any application and software, whether on Android, iPhone, and computer, is a Video Chat SDK or Software Development Kit. This software kit assists in everything that can facilitate video communication.

We continue here instead with an introduction to one of the best video chat SDKs on the market today.
