Abstract

An approach is described for enabling motion control of a client device, such as a mobile device, via a video feed transmitted from one or more video capture devices. An associated method may include establishing, via a communications network, a communication session between a client device and one or more video capture devices. The method further may include identifying a user of the client device via the one or more video capture devices and negotiating parameters of a video feed for transmission from the one or more video capture devices to the client device via the communication session. The method further may include, upon transmission of the video feed from the one or more video capture devices to the client device, facilitating control of the client device in response to any device control gesture received from the user based upon the video feed.
