Take on me, web browsers!
summary
Demo builds a browser chroma key that streams the camera with getUserMedia, copies frames to a canvas pixel loop, reads RGBA with getImageData, and sets alpha to zero for green pixels (thresholding green >100) to reveal a replacement background image. It uses setTimeout refresh rather than requestAnimationFrame, mentions rotoscoping at 15–25 fps, shows triplicated subjects and CSS swaps, warns that lighting and clothes break it, and generally works live in the browser.
