Beestream is a specialized web application written in Javascript and Typescript using the MEAN (MongoDB, Express, Angular, Node.js) web stack. This application was built to stream videos collected by the BeeMon project. The site can be found on Appalachian State University's Computer Science Department Page. The project consists of 4 pages: a landing page, an archive page, a streaming page, and a dashboard page for analytics visualization.
The landing page is intended to tell the reader about the project and overview the other pages and their functions.
The archive is intended to offer the user access to all archived bee videos that we permit them to! The principle is simple: if a hive appears in the database's video files collection, then the user can stream any file recorded from that hive.
The streaming page functions similarly to the archive page, but it only allows the user to stream the newest file from the current day for any available hive. The hive must have data from the current day in order to be streamable.
The user of the site need not be here! If something is wrong with the site, contact us! Contact info coming soon
