    ■ Layout design
    ■ System implementation
    ■ Take pictures
    ■ Display images
    ■ External Storage
    INTRODUCTION
    ■ The android framework includes support for various cameras and camera features
    available on the devices that allows us to capture pictures in your apps.
    ■ In this project an implicit intent is used to start up the user’s camera application as well
    as receive an image from it.
    ■ There are two ways to use the camera: -
    - Using the default android camera
    - Directly using the Camera API
    Layout
    ■ A layout is a container that is derived from the
    android.view.ViewGroup which is used as a container
    for other views.
    ■ It is used to group and arrange views visually on the
    screen.
    ■ In this project we used the ContraintLayout.
    Necessary UIs
    ■ TextView
    – Commonly known as the Label View
    – It is read only as it display the text on the screen in this case my app
    name.
    ■ ImageView
    – A view that shows images on the device screen.
    – Sets a drawable as the content.
    ■ ImageButton
    – Represents a push-button widget.
    – Contains the camera image drawable
    The Camera Layout
    Layout Design Layout xml code
    THE JAVA CODE
    ■ First part of the code.
    ■ Declare the variables and find the
    views based on their resource Ids
    then assign them to the variables.
    ■ Set the event implementation using
    setOnclickListener on the
    button(ImageButton).
    Take Photo on Button Click
    ■ In the java Code, Declare the variables and find the views based on their resource Ids
    then assign them to the variables as well as the variable for request code
    ■ We find the ImageButton in the xml file by ID and cast it to the ImageButton object.
    ■ Then implement the button click event by Anonymous implementation.
    ■ Pass the specific request for the android OS to open the default camera
    ■ Open the camera with intent by calling the startActivityForResult method.
    ■ The following code illustrates the steps:
    DISPLAY IMAGE TAKEN
    ■ We create onActivityResult
    ■ Check if the request is camera
    ■ The camera returns back to the app
    with the image data located in the
    intent (data extra for rendering)
    ■ Get the captured image
    ■ Set the image to the image view.
    TESTING RESULTS
    BEFORE AFTER
    PICTURE STORAGE
    ■ We allocate an external Storage location for the images captured.
    ■ First we need a permission to access the location,
    android.permissions.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE.
    ■ Pass the file location.
    ■ You can call the getExternalFileDir() the pass in the picture environment
    ■ We can specify the the file name, suffix and the location.
    ■ We pass it in as an exta to the intent using putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT)
    THANK YOU !!
