Chrome Feature Policy

In some cases, websites may have outdated feature policies or privacy policies that restrict camera access to domains other than their own. As a result, Chrome browser automatically blocks camera access without user intervention. Currently, Chrome is the primary browser that responds to such policies, but other browsers may adopt similar measures in the future. To resolve this issue, it is necessary to allow the domain 'iframe.auglio.com' for camera access in addition to the 'self' domain.
