Figure out way to execute kinesis stream from server backend #67

Open M-Davies opened 3 years ago

This is not possible currently due to how nodejs appears to execute g-streamer. It will produce #66 and as such, the python scripts will not be able to pick up any faces in the stream. I need to find a way to be able to start the stream and have it actually transmit data to aws without it blocking the python comparison script.

This is probably due to the website also tapping into the device camera, which of course produces a conflict where both the website and stream are fighting for access to the camera. I think the ideal solution would be for the website to take a picture using the camera and send that to the backend in the current way of doing it (it's just easier and less buggy)
