This repository hosts the public release installers for the Windows client. It's free, ad-free, and has no account or paywall.
OpenWebcam streams your Android phone's camera to your PC over USB or Wi-Fi. The phone runs the OpenWebcam app (the camera end); this desktop client is the receiving end on your PC. It:
- creates an OpenWebcam virtual camera that shows up in Zoom, Meet, Teams, Discord, and OBS, and
- re-serves the stream as MJPEG on localhost so OpenCV can read it directly.
- Download the latest installer from the Releases page.
- Run it (Inno Setup installer, ~25 MB).
- Open OpenWebcam on your phone and this desktop client on your PC, then connect over USB or Wi-Fi.
- In your call or capture app, pick OpenWebcam from the camera list.
The client re-serves the stream as MJPEG on localhost, so any OpenCV pipeline can read it in one line:
