continuous touch on the screen using ADB shell

I want to keep the camera button pressed to take continuous snaps. I tried this code:

#!/system/bin/sh
am start -n com.android.camera2/com.android.camera.CameraLauncher
sleep 1
count=1
x=2
while [ $count -le 1 ]
do 
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
    input touchscreen tap 560 1800
done

But it does not hold the button. It taps with a delay.

Then I tried this:

 sendevent /dev/input/event0 3 53 300
 sendevent /dev/input/event0 3 54 400
 sendevent /dev/input/event0 3 48 5
 sendevent /dev/input/event0 3 58 50
 sendevent /dev/input/event0 0 2 0
 sendevent /dev/input/event0 0 0 0
 sleep 1
 sendevent /dev/input/event0 0 2 0
 sendevent /dev/input/event0 0 0 0

this code gets executed but the effect is not seen on the touchscreen

You can swipe and hold with 'input motionevent'

input motionevent DOWN x y
input motionevent MOVE x y
input motionevent UP x y

"this code gets executed but the effect is not seen on the touchscreen"

try "adb shell su -c 'YOUR COMMAND'"

it helped me. if you send a command without su, then the code will not answer anything
