Real-time voice conversations with GPT-4o photo/video support

Hi there! I’ve been working on a small project that shows how you could develop your own web app which supports real-time voice conversations together with GPT-4o for photo/video questions and answers.

During the OpenAI Spring Update there was a similar demo, but afaik this feature is not rolled out yet to the app so i tried to build a similar app.

While testing i became really bullish on this technology’s potential for blind users. Great times ahead for them!

Demo: https://youtu.be/Bh5tORytR90
Code: GitHub - basvandorst/realtime-gpt4o-videochat: Real-time GPT-4o video/photo/voice chat

Open for feedback, but see it more as a demo/PoC project to play with.

It was nice to play with, some feedback:

  • Real-time API: Probably high on the roadmap, but frontend only authentication is not that secure :wink:
  • Very limited p/d tokens in the lowest Tier (guess only max 5 minute conversation)
  • Would be great if the Realtime API Client give you feedback if you reached the limits (afaik not standard?)
  • nice to have the React app as reference, but also a bit overwhelmed with all Wav libraries and components. Bit hard to find out what was really needed to have the basics up and running
  • Again, really see the combination (real-time voice+photo/video) as a usefull tool for blind people :ok_hand:
