2013-01-11 14:10:56 -0600	commented question	Ensuring compatibility across Android devices The app isn't on Google Play yet; I'll update here as soon as I have a version I can share.

2013-01-10 12:36:44 -0600	commented answer	Ensuring compatibility across Android devices Okay. Great! I had the false impression that the OpenCV Java API was merely a wrapper for Native functions, so it would use `cv::VideoCapture` anyway. It seems the OpenCV Java API does indeed use the Android Camera API in JavaCameraView.java. Thanks for the tips. I've updated the question to reflect needing only OpenCV Manager. However, any additional download - even just one - will be confusing for many of our users. If we use static initialization and the Java Camera API, will we have significant compatibility issues, or will only performance suffer?

2013-01-09 16:32:06 -0600	asked a question	Ensuring compatibility across Android devices We have a consumer-targeted Android app for which OpenCV support is critical. We need it to work on as many devices as possible. We've been unable to capture images on about 40% of the devices we've tried, apparently due to `cv::VideoCapture`'s use of vendor-specific APIs. Questions: Is this (~40%) failure rate in line with what others have seen? Devices that fail: Motorola Droid/X/RAZR, HTC Evo 4G, and (sometimes) Samsung Galaxy S III What can we do to maximize compatibility across consumer devices? For example, can we capture images using the Android Camera API, convert them to OpenCV-style images, and supply them to our OpenCV processing code, thereby avoiding `cv::VideoCapture` altogether? How can we identify devices that will or won't work? Is there a list of Android devices and their support of OpenCV available somewhere? Does the OpenCV team have access to a variety of test devices? More info: We use static initialization of the OpenCV libraries. Our app is intended for consumers (teachers, specifically), and expecting them to download an additional item from Google Play (OpenCV Manager) is a no-go. For now, we do all image capture and processing operations in native code.
