Letsee WebAR SDK uses WebRTC to acquire vision from Camera and stream the Video Stream. Based on this Video Stream, it provides AR experience by performing various tracking. Desktop: you can use the loopback host name localhost. Web content launched by localhost can obtain the connected camera permission even if it is executed on the browser. However, it won't work for an ip address because as it restricts attempts to obtain camera permission from the browser.
To execute and debug WebAR contents using a mobile device, configure a web server to access web contents using the https protocol or access web contents using the https protocol by setting a proxy pass or proxy tunneling.
nginx.conf (or included conf file) check
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
root /var/www/html;
}
-> Copy static web content to the designated place like a root folder or create static web content path like a symbolic link
check included conf file
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
DocumentRoot /var/www
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>
-> Copy static web content to the designated place like a root folder or create static web content path like a symbolic link
