How to implement local webcam video broadcasting in laravel.

i am working on a project where :

there are two kinds of user. like a. teacher and another student.
teachers can use his/her camera to broadcast from his screen/webcam to teach students.
student can automatically join the broadcasting if he is online and if the teacher is taking class.
it the teacher is not online then the student should see a video streaming automatically.

I looked on internet, but i have problem in understanding how to implement. So i want suggestions regarding it. I am using laravel 8, xampp server

@rajesh-kumar There is one package, that seems not maintaining actively. You can check it out, tho.

However, from the following discussion, you will get some good idea for implementation of video broadcasting on Laravel. https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/best-way-to-stream-video-in-laravem

@tisuchi the package you mentioned is about one-to-one video chat, it doesn't implement group video broadcast. but i want to implement feature something like Instagram/Youtube live where any number of streamer can broadcast to any number of listener.

upon googling furthur, i come to know that i need to implement RTMP server and use OBS studio to broadcast. but i am not sure if my implementation will work for multiple broadcaster or not. also that implementation is using nginx server, but i am on apache server(xampp implementation). so i am not sure.

is there not any relatively easier method for that?
