Recently, I was figuring out how things work out on OBS, which stands for Open Broadcaster Software.
What is OBS?
OBS Studio (formerly Open Broadcaster Software or OBS, for short) is a free, open-source, and cross-platform screencasting and streaming app. It is available for Windows, macOS, Linux distributions, and BSD. OBS Project raises funds on Open Collective and Patreon.
Wiki Source
OBS is open-source software that gave me a lot of respect compared to its competitors like Wirecast, VMix, and XSplit Broadcaster. We are aware of why being open-source is very important, especially in the blockchain space. Being open-source gives a lot of credibility on a project for having transparency in the code and the best part is that it is free.
In terms of the camera angle setup, honestly speaking I am still doing my deep thinking about how can everything be improved, I also heard some suggestions from @guiltyparties to have additional robot feeders on different locations which we can consider later as we move along on this project.
For our people who miss what is Happy Catz project, I will repost the FAQ below
What is Happy Catz?
It is a project out of love for cats. The project's goal is to make cats happy by feeding them using a Robot feeder connected to the Hive blockchain which can be watched on live streaming media platforms on Twitch and Twitter.
What blockchain are you using?
We are using Hive the blockchain for Web 3.0. Hive sports three-second zero-fee transactions and is designed to store vast amounts of content and to make it available for time-based monetization.
To make it simple, we can say that sending Hive/HBD on @give-cat-food will be instant zero-free transactions which we can watch on the live stream.
Cool, I want to know how can I help the Happy Catz project?
By sending $0.1 Crypto on @give-cat-food, you can now feed stray cats wherever you are and can watch the food drop from the automatic feeder. Any amount of donation will be accepted and expenses will be documented in my future post and give you a credit for your good work. Any excess funds will be used to add amenities for the cats and for the project development.
Is feeding the only option to interact with the cats?
In the meantime, the goal is to feed the stray cats however I am thinking to explore some other things like giving special food treats, playing, spraying bubbles, etc, etc.
Will you accept Crypto other than Hive?
Yes, the blockchain will be based on top of Hive while the plan is we will be using the Crypto conversion method going to Hive/HBD so we can accept other Cryptocurrencies.
Do you have a Discord community?
Yes, we have made our Discord channel so we can hear your suggestions. I still consider myself a student so feel free to teach us new knowledge 😇
Conclusion
I consider Happy Catz as a Hive community-driven project so feel free to copy if you want to make similar for your location. Our Discord is open so we can share our knowledge on how we can make it together.
