How To Use Phone As Webcam For PC - DroidCam

Share:

 If you have an Android phone, you can save on the cost of buying a separate webcam. Sounds weird? Today I will show you how to use phone as webcam for pc. Many of us use a computer or laptop webcam to make video calling, online classes or YouTube videos. Again many times you may have to use phone as webcam for emergency work. However, not everyone has a webcam.

In this process, the video will flow to the camera of the mobile and go to a specific port of the computer. A computer software will show it as webcam video. It may be a little hard to hear. However, it is much easier than playing pubg.



I will discuss two ways to use phone as webcam.

  1. USB
  2. Wi-Fi

1. Via USB

  • To use the webcam via USB, you need to download the mobile app from Dev4Apps. "DroidCam Wireless Version" Click here to download the app from the Play Store.
  • Go to this website by entering the browser of your choice on the computer "DroidCam Windows Client." Download the DroidCam Client App from here. It will be in a zip file. After extracting, clicking on the file will start the set up.


 
When set up, connect your mobile to the computer with USB Cable. USB Debugging mode must be turned on from Settings.

Now go to DroidCam Client App on the computer and select the USB option. When the mobile is connected properly, click on “Start”.


That's it. Now the camera of the phone will turn on and you can use the webcam. Keep the mobile in a flat place without holding it, otherwise the quality of the video will be bad. Below is a screenshot of a video call using "Dreadcam" in the Google Hangouts.



2. Via Wi-Fi

  • The application I will use to use a webcam on a computer with Wi-Fi is an IP webcam. Download the app by clicking on the link.
  • Now download this file to computer IP Webcam PC. After setting up, enter the application.
  • If you enter the mobile app and scroll, you will find the "Start Server" option below. Click. If all goes well, it will automatically connect to the computer.



Why use Android as a webcam?

You know the answer to this question better than I do. Maybe you want to stream games, or make videos using a computer. But it is not possible to go out and buy a webcam during this epidemic, or you do not have enough money to buy it, in this case it is wise to use your mobile. Many of us use computer or laptop webcams to make video calling, online classes or YouTube videos. Again many times you may have to use a webcam for emergency work. But not everyone has a webcam anymore.
The cycle includes web based video from your telephone to a specific port on your PC and having a PC driver programming catch it and give it as webcam video to any application that needs webcam access. 
Try not to get frightened with the subtleties. Its in reality exceptionally simple and there are two different ways to do it.
