Re: [android-developers] Re: Accessing Front and Back Camera at the same time
I am not sure. At that time it was not possible to be done. But with new API changes since, I am not sure this can be done now. Guess need to be tested out. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: Accessing Front and Back Camera at the same time
From what i know is that it is not possible. You are right the hardware is different for both but the software that accesses the camera is same and it can only use one camera at a time.

Isn't front and back cameras are two different pieces of hardware? Or can this be done and am I wrong?
