Nowadays, it's not just professional photographers and filmmakers who are using camera drones. More and more people are falling in love with these awesome gadgets, as they can reach areas and shoot from angles that regular cameras simply can't. With a drone, people can gain whole new appreciation of the city they have lived in for years.
Furthermore, with today's communication technologies, low-latency real-time video transmission has become a reality, which means footage captured on a drone can be streamed to others in real time.
CaaS Kit Lite: Connecting Millions of Smart Devices for Audio and Video Calls
The globally-leading drone brand DJI has integrated HUAWEI CaaS Kit Lite into its drone app. When the user runs this drone app on a Huawei phone, a "floating button" will automatically display on the screen.
They can then press this button to display their contact list.
Once they've selected a contact, the user will be able to start a video call with that contact's HUAWEI Vision or mobile phone. The video stream from the camera drone will then be transmitted straight to the contact's smart TV or smartphone.
Sharing aerial views of the city has never been so easy! And users can even call their friends from way up in the air.
By utilizing HUAWEI CaaS Kit Lite, the DJI's drone app is able to use the app video data as the video call course, implementing communication and interconnection with Huawei devices. In addition to camera drones, CaaS Kit Lite can bring handy features to other devices, and can be widely applied across all sorts of scenarios which we will be introducing in the near future.
HUAWEI CaaS Kit Lite has now been released on the HUAWEI Developer website, along with its development guide and sample code, so you can quickly integrate CaaS Kit Lite into your apps, and bring awesome audio and video calling to your users.

New MeeTime screen sharing feature
No more fiddly screenshots
With MeeTime's brand-new screen sharing feature, you can instantly share what you're looking at with others, so you don't have to keep taking and sending screenshots. By enabling screen sharing during a call, you and the person you're talking to can see the same screen at the same time.
You can also both make annotations in different colors to highlight important information, which makes it easier to communicate exactly what you're talking about.
With MeeTime screen sharing, you can do more with less: You can show your family members how to use certain features on their phone, discuss which flights and hotels you want to book for your upcoming trip with a friend, and show your clients the designs and plans you've been working. Add to this its fantastic voice call quality, and MeeTime screen sharing can make a huge difference to the ways we exchange information.
Get even more out of your smart TV
Connect to more devices and apps
On EMUI 10, MeeTime calls can be freely transferred between devices, so you can seamlessly switch your video calls to HUAWEI or HONOR Vision devices, and take advantage of their large displays.
The new Multi-Device Control Panel on EMUI 10.1 further intelligentizes the cross-device experience. When you want to make a MeeTime video call, your phone will be able to detect, find, and recommended the most suitable device, and you can seamlessly switch to it.
MeeTime on EMUI 10.1 also works with more third-party devices. With the Drift motion camera, you can send incredible images to your friends in real time, whether you're rappelling down a mountain or surfing waves. And with a piece of conference equipment, holding a video conference is just as easy as making a video call.
Because MeeTime now works with more devices, you can use it across a wider range of scenarios. Shopping, recruitment, and design apps can all integrate MeeTime to add voice calls, video calls, and screen sharing functions, so you can share your screen with your friends when you're deciding which products to purchase, hold interviews, and present design works.
Fancy a change of setting?
Travel to different countries in the blink of an eye
Not all video calls come at the right time. If you don't want your friends to see your messy bedroom, or that you're still working overtime, you can change the video background in real-time during MeeTime calls.
In EMUI 10.1, you can select from a range of fun video backgrounds and instantly appear in your chosen setting. You can add some excitement to your calls, avoid embarrassment, and protect your privacy. To choose your background, you just touch the pen-shaped icon in the upper left corner before or during the call. You can appear in a canyon, by the sea, on an open plain, or in a forest.
The latest version of MeeTime also provides dynamic video backgrounds, so you can appear with walking penguins, flowing water, or floating hot air balloons during your video calls.
The new features brought to MeeTime in EMUI 10.1 have raised it beyond being a simple video communication tool. You can now experience the convenience of exchanging ideas with colleagues, and the joy of sharing important moments with your loved ones.
