GDK: Request: Additional camera focus modes (with auto focus) #303

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
XE11

Please provide any additional information below.
Currently the only available focus mode is "infinity" which makes sense for 
most basic glass applications but in cases where zooming in and clarity are 
essential it doesn't quite work. This is critical for such applications as OCR, 
Barcode reading, AR, Object Recognition, etc.

I am finding it very difficult also to build a barcode scanning application for 
the Glass. The "recognition"-type applications could be the killer app(s) for 
Glass, but as it stands they are very difficult/impossible to implement.

Has anyone found any workarounds/hacks for this?

Without autofocus I have to use a huuuge barcode which is bad in order to scan 
an object... So sad...

This feature would be super useful. Without it all of the barcode and OCR apps 
ive tried to write don't work well/are not useable

I'm trying to scan a 1 in x 1 in barcode from 10 in distance, autofocus would 
be of much help here. Would love to see these features sooner rather than 
later. Currently XE 18.11

+1, very much needed, very useful for all sorts of applications to be able to 
scan 'regular' barcodes! This will increase the value of Glass.

+1 I have 2 customers waiting for it, maximum we got was about 3,5 cm tall 
barcode or 2,5 tall qr code. We now consider Vuzix as a solution, but having 
this on Glass would so much better

Please follow issue #15 for QR code scanning, this issue is for enabling more 
focus mode.

Actually, issue #344 is a better fit for QR code scanning.

+1. The ability to use barcode scanning on Glass would be massive for industry.

+1 Yes, this is extremely needed.

+1 Much needed for barcode scanning in the medical industry

I'd like to see this as well, but are there any workarounds out there to obtain 
the end result? Third party devices, etc?

I'm with a Google Glass XE22. And i need to read 1-D Barcodes. I've used the 
port of ZXing library too but it doesn't work for small barcodes, moreover it 
only works with big barcodes. I believe that the autofocus will solve this 
issue. I've tested an app build with this same library(ZXingLib) running on a 
Vuzix device and it works perfectly for small barcodes. There are some forecast 
in fixing this issue?
