ByteDance's Volcano Engine has developed a new multimodal transmission system to enhance AI interactions, particularly for video calls within its Doubao app. This system addresses limitations of traditional protocols like WebSocket and QUIC by incorporating WebRTC and a custom C/S architecture with MoQ protocol for improved session control. The goal is to provide a low-latency, stable, and cost-effective foundation for AI agents, enabling more natural and continuous human-AI communication, similar to OpenAI's recent GPT-Live advancements.
