Facebook Offers Live Streaming for Broadcast, Drones, More

During Facebook’s F8 developer conference in San Francisco yesterday, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the social giant is making its Live API available to developers in an effort to take video streaming via Live beyond smartphones to third-party apps and other devices. “Zuckerberg demonstrated this with a drone flying on stage, streaming video in real time to Facebook Live,” explains Variety. “Of course, integrating Facebook Live should also open up the platform to broadcasters and other professional content producers that don’t want to use a phone to stream their videos.” Early partners testing live streaming of non-mobile video feeds include Ooyala, Grabyo and Mevo.
