Flavio: tapping fingers, glancing at phone Heyyy, got a sec? I kinda... uhh... screwed up big time, ya know?
Yo, don't look at me like that! It's not my fault, alright? So, you know that ClipBehavior I added to the AndroidCamera2?
Well, turns out I didn't have my facts straight before showing it to you. The thing is, I made a clip that could attach to the camera and capture both front and back simultaneously. But here's the thing, it was supposed to be for a YouTube project, not some app we're working on.
I still don’t see how that’s a big deal…
Look, the point is, I was trying to be clever and show off my mad camera skills.
sighs heavily Look, Manueo, I know I messed up. But at least I owned up to it, right? Now, I want to make things right.
What are you talking about now?
Alright, listen up. So, I did some research and found a library that already has a multi-camera solution. It's called Multi-View Stereo MVS.
No, duh, I ain't that lazy. MVS is for stitching together multiple images taken from different angles. It's usually used in things like 3D modeling and stuff.
Anyway, I found a library called OpenCV that has a Multi-Camera module. It allows you to easily set up and use multiple cameras simultaneously.
pauses, then smirks But here's the thing, Manueo. I didn't just find OpenCV and magically make it work. Oh no, that would be too easy.
You wrote your own implementation from scratch?
Flavio's implementation was riddled with bugs and crashes, causing the app to become unstable
Thanks, Manueo. You know, it wasn't easy, but I worked my ass off to make sure this thing worked. And hey, I even threw in some fancy image processing tricks to make the footage look smoother and more cohesive. So, what do you say? Can you forgive this idiot and give my code a shot?
grabs a bag of chips and waves it excitedly Woo-hoo! Thank you, Manueo! You won't regret this, I promise.
Wait, what exactly am I saying yes to?
grinning Oh, nothing much. Just my latest and greatest creation - a badass multi-camera system that'll blow your mind!
Hell yeah, Manueo! It's like nothing you've ever seen before. You'll be able to capture insane 3D-like footage with just your smartphone.
