I need to send a video stream from my pi camera on a Raspberry pi to a computer on the same network. The video transmission should preferably have a low latency and a good image resolution. After the transmission the video stream has to be processed on the PC using Python. Therefore, the solutions I have found so far are out of the question (to a website or using VLC media player). Does anyone have a solution for my problem. I should also note that I can't get opencv installed on my Raspberry pi. For the last, I have already tried various options on the Internet. Does anyone know what the reason could be?

If you can pipe the camera to another process, then you can pipe it over the network.
To create a camera service on port 5000
«camera-process» | nc -l -p 5000
To connect to it
«viewer-process» < /dev/tcp/localhost/5000
