## README

# hardware-camera #

This module contains the STMicroelectronics android.hardware.camera.provider binary source code.

It is part of the STMicroelectronics delivery for Android.

## Description ##

This module implements android.hardware.camera.provider AIDL version 1.
Please see the Android delivery release notes for more details.

It generates libraries to be able to use the camera:
* android.hardware.camera.common@<version>-arc.stm32mpu: converts images from YUV420 to NV21, YUV420, YVU420, BGR32, RGB32, JPEG.
* android.hardware.camera.common@<version>-v4l2.stm32mpu: wrapper on the V4L2 driver.
* android.hardware.camera.common@<version>-helper.stm32mpu: various helper functions used in the camera HAL implementation.
* android.hardware.camera.common@<version>-metadata.stm32mpu: metadata helper functions used in the camera HAL implementation.
* android.hardware.camera.common@<version>-parser.stm32mpu: parser helper functions used in the camera HAL implementation.

All these libraries are used in the android.hardware.camera.provider-service.stm32mpu service, which implements camera.provider API and camera.device API.

Please see the release notes for more details.
