Custom Camera using SurfaceView

Devika Nigam
5 Dec 19

SurfaceView is a class provided by android.view package. It offers a dedicated drawing surface embedded inside of a view hierarchy. We can manage the format of this surface, however, the SurfaceView takes care of putting the surface at the right location on the screen.

In this post, we will use the SurfaceView to preview the camera (android.hardware.camera) onto the screen and capture images using it.

First let us create a new project and add the following dependencies in your app level build.gradle file which is available at location: app/build.gradle.

dependencies {
    /*... other dependencies ...*/
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-vision:17.0.2'
}

dependencies {

/*... other dependencies ...*/

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-vision:17.0.2'

}

In the AndroidManifest.xml file, add the following permission.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />

1	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />

We will also be needing the real-time permission check for android version M and above. Add the below code in your MainActivity.java for handling these checks.

import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.annotation.NonNull;
import android.support.v4.app.ActivityCompat;
import android.support.v4.content.ContextCompat;
import android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.widget.Toast;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import static android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private String[] neededPermissions = new String[]{CAMERA};

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        boolean result = checkPermission();
        if (result) {
            /* Code after permission granted */
        }
    }

    private boolean checkPermission() {
        ArrayList&lt;String&gt; permissionsNotGranted = new ArrayList&lt;&gt;();
        for (String permission : neededPermissions) {
            if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, permission) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                permissionsNotGranted.add(permission);
            }
        }
        if (!permissionsNotGranted.isEmpty()) {
            boolean shouldShowAlert = false;
            for (String permission : permissionsNotGranted) {
                shouldShowAlert = ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, permission);
            }
            if (shouldShowAlert) {
                showPermissionAlert(permissionsNotGranted.toArray(new String[0]));
            } else {
                requestPermissions(permissionsNotGranted.toArray(new String[0]));
            }
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }

    private void showPermissionAlert(final String[] permissions) {
        AlertDialog.Builder alertBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
        alertBuilder.setCancelable(true);
        alertBuilder.setTitle("Permission Required");
        alertBuilder.setMessage("Camea permission is required to move forward.");
        alertBuilder.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.yes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                requestPermissions(permissions);
            }
        });
        AlertDialog alert = alertBuilder.create();
        alert.show();
    }

    private void requestPermissions(String[] permissions) {
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this, permissions, 1001);
    }

    @Override
    public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults) {
        if (requestCode == 1001) {
            for (int result : grantResults) {
                if (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_DENIED) {
                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "This permission is required", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                    checkPermission();
                    return;
                }
            }
            /* Code after permission granted */
        }
        super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
    }
}

import android.content.DialogInterface;

import android.content.pm.PackageManager;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.support.annotation.NonNull;

import android.support.v4.app.ActivityCompat;

import android.support.v4.content.ContextCompat;

import android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog;

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.widget.Toast;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import static android.Manifest.permission.CAMERA;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private String[] neededPermissions = new String[]{CAMERA};

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

boolean result = checkPermission();

if (result) {

/* Code after permission granted */

}

private boolean checkPermission() {

ArrayList<String> permissionsNotGranted = new ArrayList<>();

for (String permission : neededPermissions) {

if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, permission) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {

permissionsNotGranted.add(permission);

}

if (!permissionsNotGranted.isEmpty()) {

boolean shouldShowAlert = false;

for (String permission : permissionsNotGranted) {

shouldShowAlert = ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(this, permission);

}

if (shouldShowAlert) {

showPermissionAlert(permissionsNotGranted.toArray(new String[0]));

} else {

requestPermissions(permissionsNotGranted.toArray(new String[0]));

}

return false;

}

return true;

}

private void showPermissionAlert(final String[] permissions) {

AlertDialog.Builder alertBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

alertBuilder.setCancelable(true);

alertBuilder.setTitle("Permission Required");

alertBuilder.setMessage("Camea permission is required to move forward.");

alertBuilder.setPositiveButton(android.R.string.yes, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {

requestPermissions(permissions);

}

});

AlertDialog alert = alertBuilder.create();

alert.show();

}

private void requestPermissions(String[] permissions) {

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this, permissions, 1001);

}

@Override

public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults) {

if (requestCode == 1001) {

for (int result : grantResults) {

if (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_DENIED) {

Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "This permission is required", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

checkPermission();

return;

}

/* Code after permission granted */

}

super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);

}

Now let’s build our layout file. So open activity_main.xml file and add the below code.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <SurfaceView
        android:id="@+id/surfaceView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:visibility="gone" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv_capture"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|bottom"
        android:background="#8cffffff"
        android:padding="20dp"
        android:text="Click"
        android:textStyle="bold"
        android:visibility="gone" />

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/iv_picture"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:visibility="gone" />
</FrameLayout>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:orientation="vertical">

<SurfaceView

android:id="@+id/surfaceView"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:visibility="gone" />

<TextView

android:id="@+id/tv_capture"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|bottom"

android:background="#8cffffff"

android:padding="20dp"

android:text="Click"

android:textStyle="bold"

android:visibility="gone" />

<ImageView

android:id="@+id/iv_picture"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:visibility="gone" />

</FrameLayout>

Now in MainActivity.java, let us set up our implementation for SurfaceView.

To initialize SurfaceView, use the following code :

private SurfaceView surfaceView;
surfaceView = findViewById(R.id.surfaceView);

1 2	private SurfaceView surfaceView; surfaceView = findViewById(R.id.surfaceView);

Now to setup SurfaceHolder, we need to first create a FaceDetector object.

private FaceDetector detector;
detector = new FaceDetector.Builder(this)
        .setProminentFaceOnly(true) // optimize for single, relatively large face
        .setTrackingEnabled(true) // enable face tracking
        .setClassificationType(/* eyes open and smile */ FaceDetector.ALL_CLASSIFICATIONS)
        .setMode(FaceDetector.FAST_MODE) // for one face this is OK
        .build();
// Check if detector has been initialized properly
if (!detector.isOperational()) {
    Log.w("MainActivity", "Detector Dependencies are not yet available");
} else {
    Log.w("MainActivity", "Detector Dependencies are available");
    /* Check camera permission here */
}

private FaceDetector detector;

detector = new FaceDetector.Builder(this)

.setProminentFaceOnly(true) // optimize for single, relatively large face

.setTrackingEnabled(true) // enable face tracking

.setClassificationType(/* eyes open and smile */ FaceDetector.ALL_CLASSIFICATIONS)

.setMode(FaceDetector.FAST_MODE) // for one face this is OK

.build();

// Check if detector has been initialized properly

if (!detector.isOperational()) {

Log.w("MainActivity", "Detector Dependencies are not yet available");

} else {

Log.w("MainActivity", "Detector Dependencies are available");

/* Check camera permission here */

}

Now setup SurfaceHolder and add a callback to it.

private CameraSource cameraSource;
private void setupSurfaceHolder() {
    cameraSource = new CameraSource.Builder(this, detector)
            .setFacing(CameraSource.CAMERA_FACING_FRONT)
            .setRequestedFps(2.0f)
            .setAutoFocusEnabled(true)
            .build();

    surfaceHolder = surfaceView.getHolder();
    surfaceHolder.addCallback(new SurfaceHolder.Callback() {
        @Override
        public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
            try {
                cameraSource.start(surfaceHolder);
                detector.setProcessor(new LargestFaceFocusingProcessor(detector,
                    new Tracker<Face>()));
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width, int height) {

        }

        @Override
        public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {
            cameraSource.stop();
        }
    });
}

private CameraSource cameraSource;

private void setupSurfaceHolder() {

cameraSource = new CameraSource.Builder(this, detector)

.setFacing(CameraSource.CAMERA_FACING_FRONT)

.setRequestedFps(2.0f)

.setAutoFocusEnabled(true)

.build();

surfaceHolder = surfaceView.getHolder();

surfaceHolder.addCallback(new SurfaceHolder.Callback() {

@Override

public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {

try {

cameraSource.start(surfaceHolder);

detector.setProcessor(new LargestFaceFocusingProcessor(detector,

new Tracker<Face>()));

} catch (IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

@Override

public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int width, int height) {

}

@Override

public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {

cameraSource.stop();

}

});

}

Now to click the picture, we need to setup OnClickListener to click the picture and display it.

findViewById(R.id.tv_capture).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        clickImage();
    }
});
private void clickImage() {
    if (cameraSource != null) {
        cameraSource.takePicture(/*shutterCallback*/null, new CameraSource.PictureCallback() {
            @Override
            public void onPictureTaken(byte[] bytes) {
                Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(bytes, 0, bytes.length);
                ((ImageView) findViewById(R.id.iv_picture)).setImageBitmap(bitmap);
                setViewVisibility(R.id.iv_picture);
                findViewById(R.id.surfaceView).setVisibility(View.GONE);
                findViewById(R.id.tv_capture).setVisibility(View.GONE);
            }
        });
    }
}

findViewById(R.id.tv_capture).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

@Override

public void onClick(View v) {

clickImage();

}

});

private void clickImage() {

if (cameraSource != null) {

cameraSource.takePicture(/*shutterCallback*/null, new CameraSource.PictureCallback() {

@Override

public void onPictureTaken(byte[] bytes) {

Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(bytes, 0, bytes.length);

((ImageView) findViewById(R.id.iv_picture)).setImageBitmap(bitmap);

setViewVisibility(R.id.iv_picture);

findViewById(R.id.surfaceView).setVisibility(View.GONE);

findViewById(R.id.tv_capture).setVisibility(View.GONE);

}

});

}
