How to access webcam via Internet Explorer (11)?
29,537
Yes IE 11 and below currently doesn't support getUserMedia
,but there is a polyfill available on github, which you can find here
It uses flash fallback in case getUserMedia
is unavailable so you can give it a try.
Update 1
There are a few more polyfills available and are listed under
webrtc4all and Temasys WebRTC can provides fallback via an NPAPI/ActiveX plugin.

Context: I'm building an offline website (html5, css, js) which i want to call over IE (11). For taking/saving a picture i need to access the webcam.
Approach: I read that IE doesn't support the getUserMedia; and the only way is to use flash.
Question: Is the only possibility to access the webcam over IE by using flash? If yes, please recommend an example.
I'd appreciate your input.
