I'm planning to calculate disparity map by taking two pictures from the two back cameras of Evo 3D. However, I'm able to use only one camera. I tried different index.
index
- 0 gives me left camera (one of the back cameras)
- 1 gives me front camera
- -1 gives me left camera (one of the back cameras).
I once got other camera using -1 index, but it's not working anymore. I'm using CameraBridgeViewBase
.
I have seen on Google group of android-opencv that people have successfully used both cameras of Evo 3D phone. I want to know how to do it? Is there some other index? or is there some other way using which I can use this.
P.S. Native Camera doesn't work. (Android 4.0.3).
The stereoscopic camera ID in Android changed from 2 to 100 with the ICS upgrade. This is the constant used by the Android Camera.open call. I don't think there was ever any official way to get one camera or the other. You can only get one image or both images.
As the above answer suggests, I used 100 as the Camera Index, but it didn't work with OpenCV, so I tried using Android's Camera SDK, but got some errors. But as this is a part of HTC Open Sense SDK, I downloaded it on my Eclipse and used http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/opensense-sdk/stereoscopic-3d/s3d-sample-code/ . I used the base file of S3D Camera Demo
and added few more functions so that I could access the Camera image data and convert it to OpenCV Mat.
So I made few changes in onTouchEvent
function in that code, and more code there.
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
// toggle();
//Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
//startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, 1337);
int bufferSize = width * height * 3;
byte[] mPreviewBuffer = null;
// New preview buffer.
mPreviewBuffer = new byte[bufferSize + 4096];
// with buffer requires addbuffer.
camera.addCallbackBuffer(mPreviewBuffer);
camera.setPreviewCallbackWithBuffer(mCameraCallback);
break;
default:
break;
}
return true;
}
private final Camera.PreviewCallback mCameraCallback = new Camera.PreviewCallback() {
public void onPreviewFrame(byte[] data, Camera c) {
Log.d(TAG, "ON Preview frame");
img = new Mat(height, width, CvType.CV_8UC1);
gray = new Mat(height, width, CvType.CV_8UC1);
img.put(0, 0, data);
Imgproc.cvtColor(img, gray, Imgproc.COLOR_YUV420sp2GRAY);
String pixvalue = String.valueOf(gray.get(300, 400)[0]);
String pixval1 = String.valueOf(gray.get(300, 400+width/2)[0]);
Log.d(TAG, pixvalue);
Log.d(TAG, pixval1);
// to do the camera image split processing using "data"
}
};
The Image that you get from the camera is in YUV420s
mode and I was initially having problems accessing the data as I had created a 4 channel Mat. Actually, it needs only 1 channel Mat.
