take photo function in unity code example
Example: take photo function in unity
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.IO;
public class WebCamPhotoCamera : MonoBehaviour
{
WebCamTexture webCamTexture;
void Start()
{
webCamTexture = new WebCamTexture();
GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTexture = webCamTexture; //Add Mesh Renderer to the GameObject to which this script is attached to
webCamTexture.Play();
}
IEnumerator TakePhoto() // Start this Coroutine on some button click
{
// NOTE - you almost certainly have to do this here:
yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame();
// it's a rare case where the Unity doco is pretty clear,
// http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/WaitForEndOfFrame.html
// be sure to scroll down to the SECOND long example on that doco page
Texture2D photo = new Texture2D(webCamTexture.width, webCamTexture.height);
photo.SetPixels(webCamTexture.GetPixels());
photo.Apply();
//Encode to a PNG
byte[] bytes = photo.EncodeToPNG();
//Write out the PNG. Of course you have to substitute your_path for something sensible
File.WriteAllBytes(your_path + "photo.png", bytes);
}
}
