IoT SDK integrates both RTC services and signalling services so you can easily develop features like live streaming and remote control at the same time.
Lightweight design
Designed for low-resource embedded systems, IoT SDK has a small package footprint as low as 400kb, so you don’t have to worry about system resource usage.
Low power consumption
Based on low hardware requirements (CPU, memory, etc.), IoT SDK works well with battery-powered devices like video doorbells.
Cross-platform
IoT SDK is compatible with WebRTC, and developers can build apps across platforms like mobile, PC, web, and smart displays (e.g., Amazon Alexa), without plugins, while supporting a wide range of chipsets and operating systems.
Reliable, excellent performance even in poor network conditions
With end-to-end algorithmic network optimization, IoT SDK provides smooth live streaming even in weak network environments. Say goodbye to frozen video streams.
Interoperable with RTC full platform
IoT SDK is interoperable with Agora’s full real-time platform so you can easily build up the companion apps on iOS, Android, or any other platform.

Use cases
Innovate with Agora – the possibilities are endless
Highly interactive devices like video doorbells and baby monitors need fast connection, low latency, weak network confrontation and low power consumption. Agora delivers with its ultra-low latency streaming service (as low as 400ms) on multiple hardware platforms and operating systems.
Home Security Cameras
With Agora’s streaming technology, users can expect ultra-low latency live video and high-quality 2-way audio even in weak network environments. We support multi-channel HD streams, with strong media stream and data stream synchronization and Hybrid cloud scenarios.
Remote Assistance
Improve the speed, accuracy, and efficiency, of remote assistance scenarios while improving customer satisfaction and increasing business profitability.
Teleoperation
Providing real-time audio and video transmission and control services for remote robot control with latency as low as 113ms.
Smart TVs
Integrating Agora’s IoT SDK with Smart TVs provides the ability to offer high performance video up to 4K and immersive 3D spatial audio ensuring viewers get an optimum experience. The SDK also supports cross platform calling, between Smart TVs and watches.
XR/VR Glasses
Enables live, interactive video, real-time screen sharing, 3D virtual spaces, and other virtual simulations. With Agora‘s streaming technology, VR and non-VR users can connect within an existing application using our SDKs. We deliver a full spectrum of human-to-human interactivity—from 1-to-1 to millions of concurrent users—to fit your every need.
Fastboard
