Use CameraX

Google recently announced CameraX, a Jetpack support library that wraps camera2 capabilities into a much simpler API, based on use cases.

One of those use cases is Image Analysis, which seems perfect to use with MLKit – they even mention it in their documentation as an example.

I’d love to see this app implemented with CameraX. Is this something that would interest you?

@renanferrari Yes, it’s do in our plan but the priority may be not that high for now. Some factors we need to take into consideration before doing that, e.g.

• CameraX is still in alpha stage and the minimum supported API is 21
• MLKit itself may also require some tweaks to work more nicely with it.

That if I can import camera x on android, I can use camera 1 for sdk less than 21 and for larger use camera x.
