Cambios en la configuración de la cámara y del sistema

La administración y el uso de la configuración de la cámara y del sistema también se actualizaron en Extended View System (EVS) 1.1 Dado que EVS 1.0 no proporciona métodos para consultar información del dispositivo de la cámara y la configuración del sistema, el desarrollador de la app debe obtienen esa información ellos mismos. Por ejemplo, el cliente debe tener acceso de calibración si se implementan algunas apps de visión artificial.

Para aliviar esta circunstancia, EVS 1.1 extiende un descriptor de dispositivo de cámara con metadatos de la cámara y proporciona varios métodos que permiten a los clientes obtener la información de configuración del sistema y del dispositivo.

import android.frameworks.cameraservice.device@2.0::CameraMetadata;
import android.frameworks.cameraservice.common@2.0::CameraMetadataType;

/**
 * Structure describing the basic properties of an EVS camera, extended
 * from its v1.0 declaration.
 *
 * The HAL is responsible for filling out this structure for each
 * EVS camera in the system.
 */
struct CameraDesc {
    @1.0::CameraDesc v1;
    /**
     * Store camera metadata such as lens characteristics.
     */
    CameraMetadata metadata;
};

Se extendió CameraDesc para que tenga metadatos de dispositivos con cámara y este tipo se importa de android.frameworks.cameraservice.device@2.0. Esta opción de diseño permite que los proveedores usen camera_metadata_t en sus implementaciones y aprovechar las APIs definidas en ANDROID_SCALER_AVAILABLE_STREAM_CONFIGURATIONS. El conductor de EVS puede usar este tipo para identificar qué configuraciones de transmisión son compatibles con cada módulo de cámara. Además, los proveedores no pueden usar sus propios tipos de metadatos para proporcionar otra información que no esté definida en Android, como se explica en el ANDROID_SCALER_AVAILABLE_STREAM_CONFIGURATIONS. El conductor de EVS puede usar este tipo para identificar qué configuraciones de transmisión son compatibles con cada módulo de cámara.

Abre un dispositivo de cámara con la configuración de transmisión deseada

import android.hardware.camera.device@3.2::Stream;

/**
 * Get the IEvsCamera associated with a cameraId from a CameraDesc
 *
 * Given a camera's unique cameraId from CameraDesc, returns the
 * IEvsCamera interface associated with the specified camera. When
 * done using the camera, the caller may release it by calling closeCamera().
 *
 * @param  cameraId  A unique identifier of the camera.
 * @param  streamCfg A stream configuration the client wants to use.
 * @return evsCamera EvsCamera object associated with a given cameraId.
 */
openCamera_1_1(string cameraId, Stream streamCfg) generates (IEvsCamera evsCamera);

Uno de los campos de metadatos que Android define es ANDROID_SCALER_AVAILABLE_STREAM_CONFIGURATIONS. El conductor de EVS puede usar este tipo para identificar las configuraciones de transmisión compatibles por cada módulo de la cámara. Por ejemplo, la implementación de referencia que se proporciona a continuación enumera los de cada configuración de transmisión admitida:

  • ID de flujo
  • Ancho
  • Altura
  • Dirección (entrada o salida)
  • Velocidad de fotogramas

Varios clientes en una sola instancia de hardware de cámara

Si un cliente solicita abrir un dispositivo de cámara ya activo, el EVS el administrador compara una configuración de transmisión solicitada con la configuración activa. Si difieren, el administrador de EVS devuelve un objeto IEvsCamera nulo. El cliente DEBE solucionar este posible error correctamente.

Archivo de configuración de referencia

El archivo de configuración de referencia incluido en EVS 1.1 está escrito en XML los proveedores pueden usar el archivo DTD incluido (que se muestra a continuación) para validar un mensaje (modificado) de configuración de muestra o usar su propio archivo si quieren usar el mismo formato. El archivo DTD también proporciona descripciones detalladas de cada elemento y atributo.
