The Media Capture API is a web standard under development to allow web applications to access the media capture capabilities of a device (typically a Smartphone or other Mobile Internet device). This would allow a web application to include a function to record audio via the device's microphone, and take a picture or record a video with the device's camera.

The standard was discontinued by the World Wide Web Consortium in 2012,^[1] and is supported in the Android browser (from version 3.0+).^[2] The Media Capture API was replaced by The Media Capture and Streams API^[3]
