Use the camera of Android device for background of the activity

Since I was having a hard time using the Augmented Reality Example of AndEngine. I thought of doing it my own way. I want to access my Android device's camera and use it as a background in my activity. It still is like an augmented reality. I will be adding sprites later on. What will be the code for the JAVA and XML? Are there any changes in the manifest? THANK YOU!

you have to use camera background(tutorial here) and put sprites with help of some rendering library.I use Jpct-ae ,which is very easy to integrate and have a great forum. and for more augmented reality effect you can apply sensor values to sprites ques here

You'll have to use camera control API's along with something called a surfaceView to do wat you need. Here are resources to get you started:
