Samsung S10 camera selection

By cityon360 on Fri, 08/23/2019 - 09:56

Hello! I bought a Samsung S10 with 3 cameras. How to use a wide-angle camera?

A telephoto lens that automatically starts vuforia 8.3.8 gives a high-quality picture on a smartphone.

Hi,

Unfortunately there is no option from within Vuforia to select a specific camera. Vuforia picks the default rear-facing camera.

I am interested regarding your use-case, why would need the wide-angle camera? Could you please provide more information?

Thank you.

Hi, and thanks for the answer.

Briefly - the picture from the camera of poor quality is now in the application. In the Samsung 10 api, vuforia automatically launches 12 MP OIS (Telephoto / F2.4). But this is not the default camera. I attach screenshots.

Hi,

I started the Vuforia Core Samples on an Samsung S10 and covered one by one the cameras. Vuforia uses the middle camera. Starting the foto app on the phone revealed that this is the default camera.

Hi,

Thank you very much! Feels like the picture is better! Changed the mode in the AR camera settings.
