Use Camera without preview #363

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Currently, the camera API requires presence of a valid SurfaceView and 
preview-oriented callbacks to do any recording (take picture, record video). 
Having to set up and maintain code that's unrelated to the core need - to take 
picture or record video - is both burdensome (the setup is quite fragile and 
poorly documented) and unnecessary (recording data should not require 
previewing it unless the user wants it).

I request to remove the dependency on previewing so that taking pictures (or 
recording videos) can be as simple as:

   Camera.open.takePicture(shutterCallback, postviewCallback, pictureCallback)

These are some of the problems I referenced above:
