## MediaPipe on the Web
MediaPipe on the Web is an effort to run the same ML solutions built for mobile
and desktop also in web browsers. The official API is under construction, but
the core technology has been proven effective. Please see
[MediaPipe on the Web ](https://developers.googleblog.com/2020/01/mediapipe-on-web.html )
in Google Developers Blog for details.
You can use the following links to load a demo in the MediaPipe Visualizer, and
over there click the "Runner" icon in the top bar like shown below. The demos
use your webcam video as input, which is processed all locally in real-time and
never leaves your device.
