Use Case (stream UDP video)

Stream server-side web-cam (robot) UDP video to a client browser. We would rather lose packets than have the webcam struggle to keep up over a TCP connection via wifi which constantly cuts out.

Attempted solution

Start a Xvfb FireFox browser on the server and have that stream the webcam media source. I don't like this solution as it's not flexible for non webcam video and difficult to configure.

I'm looking for something that can stream an arbitrary media source to a WebRTC connection (including the greets & hand shaking). I don't particularly care which language it is, if something already exists in node.js, python, C, java or Scala I'll use it. Otherwise I suppose I'll get to work on the problem (in that case any guidance would be appreciated)
