Simple Camera2 API code in Android

I am developing an app to do some image processing operations on a captured image. I used camera2basic sample as a base to my project but it sometimes takes long time to capture and sometimes crashes which annoying me.

Is there a simple authentic code simpler than camera2basic to use camera2 API with opencv or can I use intent to use the Android camera.

There are a number of projects which aim to put a robust and simpler wrapper aoerund the Android Camera2 API, and they generally support the earlier camera API also.

The two most poplar at the moment seem to be:

They are not perfect - take a look at the issues lists and decide yourself.

I have used Fotoapparat and while I did see at least one issue, I found it simpler and more robust than the basic Camera2Basic example code.

If you just want an image to work with, you can use the standard Android image capture intent to get the default camera app to take a picture for you.

See "Taking Photos Simply" in the Android developer docs.
