Icon resolution constrains for android

Question

I'm about to launch my first android application, and our graphic designer asked me for the resolution of the icons. From what I know in iOS there are constrains for the icon resolution, so what I'm asking is if there constrains here although I didn't read such in here. Also Should I get different resolutions for different screens or if I have high resolution icons will suffice? thank you in advance

Here i added the drawable image size.Hope it should helpful for you. Thanks.

Don't Create 9-patch images for launcher icons . You have to make separate image for each one.

• drawable-ldpi (120 dpi, Low density screen) - 36px x 36px
• drawable-mdpi (160 dpi, Medium density screen) - 48px x 48px
• drawable-hdpi (240 dpi, High density screen) - 72px x 72px
• drawable-xhdpi (320 dpi, Extra-high density screen) - 96px x 96px
• drawable-xxhdpi (480 dpi, Extra-high density screen) - 144px x 144px
• drawable-xxxhdpi (640 dpi, Extra-high density screen) - 192px x 192px
• web (320 dpi, Extra-high density screen) - 512px x 512px

Info : WEB(512 x 512) image is used when you upload your android application on Market.
