The System

The system utilizes WebSocket connections to maintain active communication between the ATEM, Media Server, and Rocket League game. Normally there is no need for an observer for Rocket League, the auto spectate works perfectly fine. Whenever the in-game camera switches between players, the current player’s information is passed through to my application via websocket. My app parses the data, then sends the packets over to the ATEM. The ATEM reads the command from the packet with the player name and switches the player cam accordingly.

Or here’s a list for you:

1. App monitors current game as it progresses
2. In-game switches to a different player perspective
3. Player data is retrieved from swtich
4. App creates a command in UDP message to send to the ATEM
5. ATEM switches camera feed to take current player’s webcam feed
6. Graphics update with player name and player’s webcam feed

Why Would I Make This?

Makes our lives easier during game by:

• Reducing manual switching errors
• Decreased production team workload during game
• One less task to multitask
