Finally someone fixed the simulator camera gap. Streaming from Mac hardware eliminates the device juggling that slows down my team.

Question, should snapping a picture actually take the image we see rendered in the camera view? I got a black screen with a date/time on it. cc @kzzzf

this is amazing, but is it a camera app or can we actually test vision camera in expo?

Came across pulsar and turned your docs into a full hosted site — wanted to show you. Can I share the link?

Kaitlyn Docsbook-io4 months ago

Stumbled on and added the docs to docsbook-io. All you need to do is activate for free — it's literally one button.

Before Claude Fable was suspended, it helped me create an macOS that can hook into iOS Simulators and add camera stream support. In this demo, I can run unmodifed AVCam example app from Apple and scan a QR Code as if the simulator has a back camera 😎

The #1 reason most content never ships? Having to film yourself on camera. Meet Lip-Sync on PixVerse APP. Add an image or video, type your script (or upload audio), and generate. Use built-in voices, clone your own, or drive it with any audio file. RT + Follow + Reply = 150 credits in DMs (72h only)

I made a tool that allows you to add or remove delay while streaming without the need of restarting your stream or OBS, without the need of a dual PC or any external plugins. This is the tutorial how to use it.

This is the Huawei Mate 90 Pro Max, paired with an external camera. It is important to emphasize that this is a true “external camera,” not a traditional external lens or telephoto attachment. The external camera itself features an independent 1-inch sensor, with up to 10x optical zoom and 100x digital zoom. In other words, from the sensor to the lens, it is a complete and independent imaging system in its own right. It is also very simple to use. Just attach it to the camera area of the Mate 90 Pro Max, and you can control the external camera directly through the phone’s screen, operating system, and camera software. In this setup, the phone’s own camera does not participate in image capture. The camera area mainly serves to secure and connect the external camera. The actual photography is handled by the external camera’s own 1-inch sensor and 24mm-to-240mm lens. This is also the biggest difference between it and traditional smartphone telephoto attachments. Traditional telephoto attachments still rely on the phone’s original camera to capture images, whereas this solution adds a complete, independent camera system to the phone. In a sense, you can think of the Mate 90 Pro Max as the external camera’s display, operating system, and computing platform. In theory, this external camera could also be used with other phones, as long as it is securely mounted and properly adapted through the appropriate connection method.
