The PiKVM project has introduced a web-camera forwarding feature for its V3 and V4 devices, allowing users to transfer local webcam video to a remote host as a virtual USB device. Currently in early access with a maximum resolution of 1280x720, the camera support is temporarily exclusive to official PiKVM hardware, with full source code planned under GPLv3 after an undisclosed period.
Background
PiKVM is an open-source KVM-over-IP solution that allows remote control of computers via network using a Raspberry Pi. This feature expands its peripheral emulation capabilities beyond keyboard, mouse, and storage.
