.then(stream => {
video.srcObject = stream;
video.play();
});
BATTERY API*
@trishulgoel
navigator.getBattery().then(function(battery) {
// battery.charging
// battery.level
battery.addEventListener('chargingchange', listener);
battery.addEventListener('levelchange', listener);
battery.addEventListener('chargingtimechange', listener);
}
