What is CameraX

  • CameraX is a support library created by Google which comes from android Jetpack components.
  • It is designed to support the camera of multiple android devices consistently without writing device-specific code.
  • It is actually based on the old camera-2 API.
  • Some additional advantages include the camera being life cycle aware.
