Public methods
getCameraControl
abstract @NonNull CameraControl getCameraControl()
Returns the CameraControl for the Camera.
The CameraControl provides various asynchronous operations like zoom, focus and metering. CameraControl is ready to start operations immediately after use cases are bound to the Camera. When all UseCases are unbound, or when camera is closing or closed because lifecycle onStop happens, the CameraControl will reject all operations.
Each method of CameraControl returns a ListenableFuture which apps can use to check the asynchronous result. If the operation is not allowed in current state, the returned ListenableFuture will fail immediately with CameraControl.OperationCanceledException.
getCameraInfo
abstract @NonNull CameraInfo getCameraInfo()
Returns information about this camera.
The returned information can be used to query static camera characteristics or observe the runtime state of the camera.
