How to take picture with camera using ARCore

ARCore camera doesn't seem to support takePicture.
https://developers.google.com/ar/reference/java/com/google/ar/core/Camera
Anyone know how I can take pictures with ARCore?

I am assuming you mean a picture of what the camera is seeing and the AR objects. At a high level you need to get permission to write to external storage to save the picture, copy the frame from OpenGL and then save it as a png (for example). Here are the specifics:
Add the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission to the AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
Then change CameraPermissionHelper to iterate over both the CAMERA and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions to make sure they are granted
private static final String REQUIRED_PERMISSIONS[] = {
Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
Manifest.permission.CAMERA
};
/**
* Check to see we have the necessary permissions for this app.
*/
public static boolean hasCameraPermission(Activity activity) {
for (String p : REQUIRED_PERMISSIONS) {
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, p) !=
PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
/**
* Check to see we have the necessary permissions for this app,
* and ask for them if we don't.
*/
public static void requestCameraPermission(Activity activity) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(activity, REQUIRED_PERMISSIONS,
CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE);
}
/**
* Check to see if we need to show the rationale for this permission.
*/
public static boolean shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(Activity activity) {
for (String p : REQUIRED_PERMISSIONS) {
if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(activity, p)) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
Next, add a couple fields to HelloARActivity to keep track of the dimensions of the frame and boolean to indicate when to save the picture.
private int mWidth;
private int mHeight;
private boolean capturePicture = false;
Set the width and height in onSurfaceChanged()
public void onSurfaceChanged(GL10 gl, int width, int height) {
mDisplayRotationHelper.onSurfaceChanged(width, height);
GLES20.glViewport(0, 0, width, height);
mWidth = width;
mHeight = height;
}
At the bottom of onDrawFrame(), add a check for the capture flag. This should be done after all the other drawing happens.
if (capturePicture) {
capturePicture = false;
SavePicture();
}
Then add the onClick method for a button to take the picture, and the actual code to save the image:
public void onSavePicture(View view) {
// Here just a set a flag so we can copy
// the image from the onDrawFrame() method.
// This is required for OpenGL so we are on the rendering thread.
this.capturePicture = true;
}
/**
* Call from the GLThread to save a picture of the current frame.
*/
public void SavePicture() throws IOException {
int pixelData[] = new int[mWidth * mHeight];
// Read the pixels from the current GL frame.
IntBuffer buf = IntBuffer.wrap(pixelData);
buf.position(0);
GLES20.glReadPixels(0, 0, mWidth, mHeight,
GLES20.GL_RGBA, GLES20.GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, buf);
// Create a file in the Pictures/HelloAR album.
final File out = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES) + "/HelloAR", "Img" +
Long.toHexString(System.currentTimeMillis()) + ".png");
// Make sure the directory exists
if (!out.getParentFile().exists()) {
out.getParentFile().mkdirs();
}
// Convert the pixel data from RGBA to what Android wants, ARGB.
int bitmapData[] = new int[pixelData.length];
for (int i = 0; i < mHeight; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < mWidth; j++) {
int p = pixelData[i * mWidth + j];
int b = (p & 0x00ff0000) >> 16;
int r = (p & 0x000000ff) << 16;
int ga = p & 0xff00ff00;
bitmapData[(mHeight - i - 1) * mWidth + j] = ga | r | b;
}
}
// Create a bitmap.
Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmapData,
mWidth, mHeight, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
// Write it to disk.
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(out);
bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, fos);
fos.flush();
fos.close();
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
showSnackbarMessage("Wrote " + out.getName(), false);
}
});
}
Last step is to add the button to the end of activity_main.xml layout
<Button
android:id="#+id/fboRecord_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignStart="#+id/surfaceview"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/surfaceview"
android:onClick="onSavePicture"
android:text="Snap"
tools:ignore="OnClick"/>

Acquiring the image buffer
In the latest ARCore SDK, we get access to the image buffer via public class Frame. Below is the sample code which gives us access to the image buffer.
private void onSceneUpdate(FrameTime frameTime) {
try {
Frame currentFrame = sceneView.getArFrame();
Image currentImage = currentFrame.acquireCameraImage();
int imageFormat = currentImage.getFormat();
if (imageFormat == ImageFormat.YUV_420_888) {
Log.d("ImageFormat", "Image format is YUV_420_888");
}
}
onSceneUpdate() will be called for every update if you register it to setOnUpdateListener() callback. Image will be in YUV_420_888 format, but it will have full Field of view of native high resolution camera.
Also do not forget to close resources of received image by calling currentImage.close(). Otherwise you will receive a ResourceExhaustedException on the next run of onSceneUpdate.
Writing the acquired image buffer to a file
Following implementation converts YUV buffer to compressed JPEG byte array
private static byte[] NV21toJPEG(byte[] nv21, int width, int height) {
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
YuvImage yuv = new YuvImage(nv21, ImageFormat.NV21, width, height, null);
yuv.compressToJpeg(new Rect(0, 0, width, height), 100, out);
return out.toByteArray();
}
public static void WriteImageInformation(Image image, String path) {
byte[] data = null;
data = NV21toJPEG(YUV_420_888toNV21(image),
image.getWidth(), image.getHeight());
BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(path));
bos.write(data);
bos.flush();
bos.close();
}
private static byte[] YUV_420_888toNV21(Image image) {
byte[] nv21;
ByteBuffer yBuffer = image.getPlanes()[0].getBuffer();
ByteBuffer uBuffer = image.getPlanes()[1].getBuffer();
ByteBuffer vBuffer = image.getPlanes()[2].getBuffer();
int ySize = yBuffer.remaining();
int uSize = uBuffer.remaining();
int vSize = vBuffer.remaining();
nv21 = new byte[ySize + uSize + vSize];
//U and V are swapped
yBuffer.get(nv21, 0, ySize);
vBuffer.get(nv21, ySize, vSize);
uBuffer.get(nv21, ySize + vSize, uSize);
return nv21;
}

Sorry for answering late.You can use code to click picture in ARCore:
private String generateFilename() {
String date =
new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddHHmmss", java.util.Locale.getDefault()).format(new Date());
return Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(
Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES) + File.separator + "Sceneform/" + date + "_screenshot.jpg";
}
private void saveBitmapToDisk(Bitmap bitmap, String filename) throws IOException {
File out = new File(filename);
if (!out.getParentFile().exists()) {
out.getParentFile().mkdirs();
}
try (FileOutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(filename);
ByteArrayOutputStream outputData = new ByteArrayOutputStream()) {
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, outputData);
outputData.writeTo(outputStream);
outputStream.flush();
outputStream.close();
} catch (IOException ex) {
throw new IOException("Failed to save bitmap to disk", ex);
}
}
private void takePhoto() {
final String filename = generateFilename();
/*ArSceneView view = fragment.getArSceneView();*/
mSurfaceView = findViewById(R.id.surfaceview);
// Create a bitmap the size of the scene view.
final Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(mSurfaceView.getWidth(), mSurfaceView.getHeight(),
Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
// Create a handler thread to offload the processing of the image.
final HandlerThread handlerThread = new HandlerThread("PixelCopier");
handlerThread.start();
// Make the request to copy.
PixelCopy.request(mSurfaceView, bitmap, (copyResult) -> {
if (copyResult == PixelCopy.SUCCESS) {
try {
saveBitmapToDisk(bitmap, filename);
} catch (IOException e) {
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(DrawAR.this, e.toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
return;
}
Snackbar snackbar = Snackbar.make(findViewById(android.R.id.content),
"Photo saved", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG);
snackbar.setAction("Open in Photos", v -> {
File photoFile = new File(filename);
Uri photoURI = FileProvider.getUriForFile(DrawAR.this,
DrawAR.this.getPackageName() + ".ar.codelab.name.provider",
photoFile);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, photoURI);
intent.setDataAndType(photoURI, "image/*");
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
startActivity(intent);
});
snackbar.show();
} else {
Log.d("DrawAR", "Failed to copyPixels: " + copyResult);
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(DrawAR.this,
"Failed to copyPixels: " + copyResult, Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
toast.show();
}
handlerThread.quitSafely();
}, new Handler(handlerThread.getLooper()));

I use android.hardware.camera2, CDS enable 0 num_str 1 applied 0 stream_id 5

I'm using camera2 to record video,There was an error.

mImageReader = ImageReader.newInstance(largest.getWidth(), largest.getHeight(),ImageFormat.YUV_420_888, 5);
mImageReader.setOnImageAvailableListener(mOnImageAvailableListener, null);

#Override
public void onImageAvailable(ImageReader reader) {

How to get single preview frame in Camera2 API Android 5.0?

I'm trying to get a preview frame for QR code scanning functionality using Camera2 API. In old Camera API it's as easy as:
android.hardware.Camera mCamera;
...
mCamera.setPreviewCallback(new Camera.PreviewCallback() {
#Override
public void onPreviewFrame(byte[] data, Camera camera) {
// will be invoked for every preview frame in addition to displaying them on the screen
}
});
However, I can't find a way to achieve that using new Camera2 API. I'd like to receive multiple frames that I can work on - the best would be to receive byte array as in old API. Any ideas how to do that?

A little late but better than never:
Usually a TextureView is used to display the preview of the camera. You can use TextureView.SurfaceTextureListener to get a callback every time the surface changes. TextureView does provide a method getBitmap(Bitmap) which you can use to get the preview frame in the same size as the TextureView.
You can use this Google sample as starting point. Simply update the surfaceTextureListener like shown here:
private val surfaceTextureListener = object : TextureView.SurfaceTextureListener {
override fun onSurfaceTextureAvailable(texture: SurfaceTexture, width: Int, height: Int) {
openCamera(width, height)
}
override fun onSurfaceTextureSizeChanged(texture: SurfaceTexture, width: Int, height: Int) {
configureTransform(width, height)
}
override fun onSurfaceTextureDestroyed(texture: SurfaceTexture) = true
override fun onSurfaceTextureUpdated(texture: SurfaceTexture) {
// Start changes
// Get the bitmap
val frame = Bitmap.createBitmap(textureView.width, textureView.height, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888)
textureView.getBitmap(frame)
// Do whatever you like with the frame
frameProcessor?.processFrame(frame)
// End changes
}
}

Use Below code to do so.
CameraManager manager = (CameraManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CAMERA_SERVICE);
try {
CameraCharacteristics characteristics = manager.getCameraCharacteristics(cameraDevice.getId());
Size[] jpegSizes = null;
if (characteristics != null) {
jpegSizes = characteristics.get(CameraCharacteristics.SCALER_STREAM_CONFIGURATION_MAP).getOutputSizes(ImageFormat.JPEG);
}
int width = 480;//480x320
int height = 320;
if (jpegSizes != null && 0 < jpegSizes.length) {
width = jpegSizes[0].getWidth();
height = jpegSizes[0].getHeight();
}
ImageReader reader = ImageReader.newInstance(width, height, ImageFormat.JPEG, 1);
List<Surface> outputSurfaces = new ArrayList<Surface>(2);
outputSurfaces.add(reader.getSurface());
outputSurfaces.add(new Surface(textureView.getSurfaceTexture()));
final CaptureRequest.Builder captureBuilder = cameraDevice.createCaptureRequest(CameraDevice.TEMPLATE_STILL_CAPTURE);
captureBuilder.addTarget(reader.getSurface());
captureBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.CONTROL_MODE, CameraMetadata.CONTROL_MODE_AUTO);
// Orientation
int rotation = ((Activity) context).getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getRotation();
captureBuilder.set(CaptureRequest.JPEG_ORIENTATION, ORIENTATIONS.get(rotation));
final File file = getFileDir();
ImageReader.OnImageAvailableListener readerListener = new ImageReader.OnImageAvailableListener() {
#Override
public void onImageAvailable(ImageReader reader) {
Image image = null;
try {
image = reader.acquireLatestImage();
ByteBuffer buffer = image.getPlanes()[0].getBuffer();
byte[] bytes = new byte[buffer.capacity()];
buffer.get(bytes);
save(bytes);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (image != null) {
image.close();
}
}
}
private void save(byte[] bytes) throws IOException {
OutputStream output = null;
try {
output = new FileOutputStream(file);
output.write(bytes);
} finally {
if (null != output) {
output.close();
}
}
}
};
reader.setOnImageAvailableListener(readerListener, mBackgroundHandler);
} catch (CameraAccessException e) {
e.printStackTrace();

how to create and save a screenshot from a surfaceview?

I have an app that I want to be able to capture a screenshot
Here is my code :
public class Screenshot {
private final View view;
/** Create snapshots based on the view and its children. */
public Screenshot(View root) {
this.view = root;
}
/** Create snapshot handler that captures the root of the whole activity. */
public Screenshot(Activity activity) {
final View contentView = activity.findViewById(android.R.id.content);
this.view = contentView.getRootView();
}
/** Take a snapshot of the view. */
public Bitmap snap() {
Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(this.view.getWidth(), this.view.getHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);
view.draw(canvas);
return bitmap;
}
}
but the contents of the surfaceView is saved as black.!!!
Please help me, Thanks...

I hope you have used this solution which was posted here Get screenshot of surfaceView in Android
this thing is explained here Take Screenshot of SurfaceView
The SurfaceView's surface is independent of the surface on which View elements are drawn. So capturing the View contents won't include the SurfaceView.........
I hope this Taking screenshot programmatically doesnt capture the contents of surfaceVIew code can help you out more
