<p><span class="seoSummary"><strong>WebRTC</strong> (Web Real-Time Communications) é uma tecnologia que permite aplicativos e sites da Web a capturarem e opcionalmente transmitirem mídia de áudio e/ou vídeo, assim como trocar informação arbitrária entre navegadores sem a necessidade de um intermediador. O conjunto de padrões que abrangem WebRTC possibilita o compartilhamento de informação e a realização de teleconferência peer-to-peer, dispensando a instalação de <em>plug-ins</em> ou quaisquer softwares de terceiros.</span></p>

<p>WebRTC consiste em diversas APIs e protocolos interrelacionados que trabalham juntos. A documentação que você encontrará aqui o ajudará a entender os fundamentos de WebRTC, como configurar e usar, tanto informação, quanto conexões de mídia e mais. </p>

<h2 id="WebRTC_conceitos_e_uso">WebRTC conceitos e uso</h2>

<p>WebRTC serve à diversas propostas, e sobrepõe-se substancialmente com a API de Captura e Transmissão. Juntas, provém capacidades poderosas de multimídia para a Web, incluíndo suporte para conferência em áudio e vídeo, troca de arquivos, administração de identidade, e lidando com sistemas telefônicos legados enviando sinais {{Glossary("DTMF")}}.</p>

<p>Conexões entre dois <em>peers </em>são criadas usando—e representadas por—uma interface {{DOMxRef("RTCPeerConnection")}}. Uma vez que a conexão tenha sido estabilizada e iniciada, media streams ({{DOMxRef("MediaStream")}}s) (transmissões de mídia) e/ou data channels ({{DOMxRef("RTCDataChannel")}}s) (canais de dados) podem ser adicionados à conexão.</p>

<p>Dados de mídia podem consistir em qualquer número de <em>tracks</em>(faixas) de dados de mídia; <em>tracks</em>, que são representados por objetos baseados na interface {{DOMxRef("MediaStreamTrack")}} , que podem conter um número dentre tipos de dados de mídia, incluíndo áudio, vídeo e texto (como legendas ou até mesmo nomes de capítulos). A maioria das transmissões consiste de ao menos uma faixa de áudio e comumente também uma faixa de vídeo, e podem ser usadas para enviar e receber ambas as mídias ao vivo ou dados salvos de mídia (como um filme transmitido).</p>

<p>Você também pode usar a conexão entre dois <em>peers </em>para trocar dados arbitrários binários usando a interface {{DOMxRef("RTCDataChannel")}}. Isto pode ser usado para informação de <em>back-channel </em>(canal de volta), troca de <em>metadata</em>, pacotes de <em>status</em> de games, transferência de arquivos, ou até mesmo como um canal primário para transferir dados.</p>

<p><em><strong>são necessários mais detalhes e links e tutoriais relevantes</strong></em></p>

<h2 id="WebRTC_interfaces">WebRTC interfaces</h2>

<p>Porque WebRTC provê interfaces que trabalham em conjunto para realizar uma variedade de tarefas, nós dividimos as interfaces na listagem abaixo por categoria. Por favor, atente-se a sidebar para uma listagem em ordem alfabética.</p>

<h3 id="Conexão_configuração_e_gerenciamento">Conexão, configuração e gerenciamento</h3>

<p>Estas interfaces são usadas para configurar, abrir e gerenciar conexões WebRTC.</p>

<dl>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}</dt>
 <dd>Representa a conexão WebRTC entre o computador local e um peer remoto. É usado para lidar com um streaming eficiente de dados entre os dois peers.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCDataChannel")}}</dt>
 <dd>Representa um canal de dados bidirecional entre dois peers de uma conexão</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCDataChannelEvent")}}</dt>
 <dd>Represents events that occur while attaching a {{domxref("RTCDataChannel")}} to a {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}. The only event sent with this interface is {{event("datachannel")}}.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCSessionDescription")}}</dt>
 <dd>Represents the parameters of a session. Each <code>RTCSessionDescription</code> consists of a description <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCSessionDescription/type" title="The property RTCSessionDescription.type is an enum of type RTCSdpType describing the description's type."><code>type</code></a> indicating which part of the offer/answer negotiation process it describes and of the <a href="/en-US/docs/Glossary/SDP" title="SDP: SDP (Session Description Protocol) is the standard describing a peer-to-peer connection. SDP contains the codec, source address, and timing information of audio and video.">SDP</a> descriptor of the session.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCStatsReport")}}</dt>
 <dd>Provides information detailing statistics for a connection or for an individual track on the connection; the report can be obtained by calling {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection.getStats()")}}.</dd>

 <dd>Represents a candidate internet connectivity establishment (ICE) server for establishing an {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCIceTransport")}}</dt>
 <dd>Represents information about an internet connectivity establishment (ICE) transport.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCPeerConnectionIceEvent")}}</dt>
 <dd>Represents events that occurs in relation to ICE candidates with the target, usually an {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}. Only one event is of this type: {{event("icecandidate")}}.</dd>

 <dd>Manages the encoding and transmission of data for a {{domxref("MediaStreamTrack")}} on an {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCRtpReceiver")}}</dt>
 <dd>Manages the reception and decoding of data for a {{domxref("MediaStreamTrack")}} on an {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCTrackEvent")}}</dt>
 <dd>Indicates that a new incoming {{domxref("MediaStreamTrack")}} was created and an associated {{domxref("RTCRtpReceiver")}} object was added to the {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}} object.</dd>
</dl>

<h3 id="Identity_and_security">Identity and security</h3>

<p>The WebRTC API includes a number of interfaces to manage security and identity.</p>

<dl>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCIdentityProvider")}}</dt>
 <dd>Enables a user agent is able to request that an identity assertion be generated or validated.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCIdentityAssertion")}}</dt>
 <dd>Represents the identity of the a remote peer of the current connection. If no peer has yet been set and verified this interface returns <code>null</code>. Once set it can't be changed.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCIdentityProviderRegistrar")}}</dt>
 <dd>Registers an  identity provider (idP).</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCIdentityEvent")}}</dt>
 <dd>Represents an identity assertion generated by an identity provider (idP). This is usually for an {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}. The only event sent with this type is {{event("identityresult")}}.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCIdentityErrorEvent")}}</dt>
 <dd>Represents an error associated with the identity provider (idP). This is usually for an {{domxref("RTCPeerConnection")}}. Two events are sent with this type: {{event("idpassertionerror")}} and {{event("idpvalidationerror")}}.</dd>
 <dt>{{domxref("RTCCertificate")}}</dt>
