Set front-facing camera in Xcode. How can I do that?
Set front-facing camera in Xcode.
AVCaptureSession *session = [AVCaptureSession new];
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
[session setSessionPreset:AVCaptureSessionPreset640x480];
else
[session setSessionPreset:AVCaptureSessionPresetPhoto];
AVCaptureDevice *device = [AVCaptureDevice defaultDeviceWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo];
AVCaptureDeviceInput *deviceInput = [AVCaptureDeviceInput deviceInputWithDevice:device error:&error];
require( error == nil, bail );
isUsingFrontFacingCamera = NO;
if ( [session canAddInput:deviceInput] )
[session addInput:deviceInput];
stillImageOutput = [AVCaptureStillImageOutput new];
[stillImageOutput addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"capturingStillImage" options:NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew context:AVCaptureStillImageIsCapturingStillImageContext];
if ( [session canAddOutput:stillImageOutput] )
[session addOutput:stillImageOutput];
Add this method to iterate over existing devices checking its position:
- (AVCaptureDevice *)frontCamera {
NSArray *devices = [AVCaptureDevice devicesWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo];
for (AVCaptureDevice *device in devices) {
if ([device position] == AVCaptureDevicePositionFront) {
return device;
}
}
return nil;
}
Then, replace:
AVCaptureDevice *device = [AVCaptureDevice defaultDeviceWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo];
with:
AVCaptureDevice *device = [self frontCamera];
Since iOS 10 devicesWithMediaType:
is deprecated. You should use AVCAptureDeviceDiscoverySession
.
- (AVCaptureDevice *)frontCamera {
return [AVCaptureDeviceDiscoverySession discoverySessionWithDeviceTypes:@[ AVCaptureDeviceTypeBuiltInWideAngleCamera ]
mediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo
position:AVCaptureDevicePositionFront].devices.firstObject;
}
