someinteresting··on Ask HN: How does MS-Teams, Meets and Zoom virtual background works?
This sounds feasible, this is how I would do it to save on costs. But then it can be a bad user experience. And as far as I know, you have the virtual background even when using a potato to stream.

Maybe if the device is not good enough then they push it to the server side?

Thank you, but I am more interested in what can be the system architecture. It would be an obvious choice to push this to the client side, but with lower end decides it can be slow. If we push it to the server then the stream can have delay and it would cost a fortune.
