Option 3 - Video Streaming Using Cloud Technology

Project goal: To create a web application using AWS services for professionals who will receive video submissions from users while protecting their privacy.

Target users:

• Senders: An average adult who has created a video of themselves, has access to Internet and phone/computer, and may want to have their face blurred throughout the video for privacy reasons.
• Receivers: Professionals (e.g., doctors, teachers, recruiters/interviewers) who need to review the video submissions for diagnosis or assessment reasons, and has access to Internet and computer.

Things to think about when scoping your project: This list is non-exhaustive. It is only meant to get you thinking about the variety of ways you may choose to scope and design this project.

• How can the app facilitate the recording of the video after the sender logs in?
• How might senders review what has been recorded and decide if they want to re-record it before submitting it?
• How will data security and user privacy be enforced and communicated to the senders?
• Will the application be responsive to work on phones, tablets, and desktops?
• Will the receiver be able to provide feedback to the sender, or request follow up video submissions?
• How will professionals know when a diagnosis/assessment is required?
• Can senders view their videos in the system and delete them?
• Will the senders or receivers be able to decide how long the videos should be retained in the system?

Repo organization

Our tests can be found in the cypress folder, documentation is contained in docs, and our code is in src. Our NextJS app uses an App Router, so URLs in our web app match the folder structure in our app directory.
