Does anybody know how to access the iPhone camera directly through the SDK?
I'd like to be able to grab individual image frames from the camera, and I don't mean pulling up the UIImagePickerController. I am looking for something more powerful.
For example, apps like Broadcaster by Ustream which shows live video on the iPhone and transmits it to a web page. This is the type of thing I am after.
I see threads on various forums (
iPhone sdk direct access to camera - Mac Forums) that are a couple of years old that say this isn't possible without hacking the iPhone. I would expect that newer versions of the SDK permit this though, especially when I see apps in the Apple Store that do it.
Any thoughts would be great!
thanks!
