Integrating FaceTime functionality into iPad app

Question

My company is planning develop an iPad app that will rely heavily on video calls and I am trying to decide which API/tools to use.

Our requirements are as follows:

• High quality video with minimal delay or dropping of calls (provided users on each end have good connection)
• Good security
• Customizable UI; ability to move/resize video windows
• Ability to switch between FaceTime and iSight cameras; user would typically use FaceTime but could turn iPad around to use iSight when better resolution is required

I am well aware that there is no FaceTime API. Is there some other WebRTC-like API/SDK I could use that meets these requirements? Based on my research so far, OpenTok (TokBox) seems like the best bet.

Answer 1

AddLive is another API, though at this point, it seems incomplete. It is missing files from iOS SDK at least as of today.
