CameraPreviewOutput

interface CameraPreviewOutput extends CameraOutput

Represents the CameraOutput for preview.

The CameraPreviewOutput needs to be connected to the CameraSession as an output, as well as to a PreviewView as a target.

Examples

Creating a CameraPreviewOutput via the Hooks API:

const previewOutput = usePreviewOutput()

Creating a CameraPreviewOutput via the Imperative API:

const previewOutput = VisionCamera.createPreviewOutput()

Properties

currentResolution?

readonly optional currentResolution?: Size

The resolution that the underlying capture pipeline has resolved this CameraOutput to, in sensor-native (un-rotated) pixels, or undefined if the output has not yet been connected to a CameraSession.

Discussion

The selected Size may differ from the requested Size (e.g. from PhotoOutputOptions.targetResolution), as the CameraSession negotiates resolutions across attached CameraOutputs, connected CameraDevice capabilities, and enabled Constraints.

Discussion

For outputs that are not pixel-based (e.g. metadata-only outputs), this reports the resolution of the upstream video stream feeding the output, or undefined if no video input is attached.

outputOrientation

outputOrientation: CameraOrientation

Gets or sets the output orientation of this CameraOutput.

Individual implementations of CameraOutput may choose different strategies for implementing output orientation, for example:

• A Photo output might apply orientation via EXIF flags.
• A Video output might apply orientation via track transform metadata.
• A Preview output might apply orientation via view transforms.
• A Frame output might not apply orientation and only pass it as a property via the Frame object, unless explicitly configured to physically rotate buffers.
