var StopWebCam = function() {
var stream = video.srcObject
var tracks = stream.getTracks()
for (var i = 0; i < tracks.length; i++) {
var track = tracks[i]
track.stop()
}
video.srcObject = null
}
var start = function() {
var video = document.getElementById('video'),
vendorURL = window.URL || window.webkitURL
if (navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia) {
navigator.mediaDevices
.getUserMedia({ video: true })
.then(function(stream) {
video.srcObject = stream
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.log('Something went wrong')
})
}

$(function() {
start()
})

* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;

font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
}
body {
height: 100vh;
width: 100vw;
background: #f2f4f6;
overflow: hidden;
}
.webcam-start-stop {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
padding: 5px 0;
background: #000;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: space-around;
