3. Conference services have been around for a
long time
• There’s nothing new here – WebRTC just lets you access
them more conveniently
– with WebRTC it is now easier to use conference capabilities in
a truly ad-hoc way
• The big change WebRTC brings to media sessions is
context. The media session enhances your application
instead of being the goal itself
– let’s stop talking about “conferencing” and start talking about
n-party sessions

4. The Crocodile SDK and Network
• Support for ad hoc n-party sessions
• It’s the same API, instead of connecting to one person
you connect to an array of people
• You can add people to existing sessions
• Two party sessions are peer-to-peer but the network
and SDK automatically transfers you into a media mixer
when you add more people
• The network manages the mixer, resources are
allocated and freed automatically without the
developer needing to do anything
• Developers can control the layout of the mixer output

5. If you have a Crocodile Talk account
• Conferencing is now supported for users of Google
Chrome (Firefox support coming soon)
• Select multiple contacts to start a n-party call
• Drag contacts onto an existing call to add them
• You can leave and re-join conferences
