android.control.aeAntibandingMode byte
  • OFF
  • 50HZ
  • 60HZ
  • AUTO
Enum for controlling antibanding android.control.aeAvailableAntibandingModes
android.control.aeExposureCompensation int32 Adjustment to AE target image brightness count of positive/negative EV steps For example, if EV step is 0.333, '6' will mean an exposure compensation of +2 EV; -3 will mean an exposure compensation of -1
android.control.aeLock byte
  • ON Autoexposure lock is enabled; the AE algorithm must not update the exposure and sensitivity parameters while the lock is active
  • OFF Autoexposure lock is disabled; the AE algorithm is free to update its parameters.
Whether AE is currently locked to its latest calculated values Note that even when AE is locked, the flash may be fired if the AE mode is ON_AUTO_FLASH / ON_ALWAYS_FLASH / ON_AUTO_FLASH_REDEYE.
android.control.aeMode byte
  • OFF Autoexposure is disabled; sensor.exposureTime and sensor.sensitivity are used
  • ON Autoexposure is active, no flash control
  • ON_AUTO_FLASH if flash exists Autoexposure is active, auto flash control; flash may be fired when precapture trigger is activated, and for captures for which captureIntent = STILL_CAPTURE
  • ON_ALWAYS_FLASH if flash exists Autoexposure is active, auto flash control for precapture trigger and always flash when captureIntent = STILL_CAPTURE
  • ON_AUTO_FLASH_REDEYE optional Automatic red eye reduction with flash. If deemed necessary, red eye reduction sequence should fire when precapture trigger is activated, and final flash should fire when captureIntent = STILL_CAPTURE
Whether AE is currently updating the sensor exposure and sensitivity fields android.control.aeAvailableModes Only effective if android.control.mode = AUTO
android.control.aeRegions int32 x 5 x area_count List of areas to use for metering Each area is a rectangle plus weight: xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax, weight. The coordinate system is based on the active pixel array, with (0,0) being the top-left of the active pixel array, and (android.sensor.info.activeArraySize.width, android.sensor.info.activeArraySize.height) being the bottom-right point of the active pixel array. The weight should be nonnegative. If all regions have 0 weight, then no specific metering area needs to be used by the HAL. If the metering region is outside the current android.scaler.cropRegion, the HAL should ignore the sections outside the region and output the used sections in the frame metadata
android.control.aeTargetFpsRange int32 x 2 Range over which fps can be adjusted to maintain exposure android.control.aeAvailableTargetFpsRanges Only constrains AE algorithm, not manual control of android.sensor.exposureTime
android.control.afMode byte
  • OFF The 3A routines do not control the lens; android.lens.focusPosition is controlled by the application
  • AUTO if lens is not fixed focus. Use android.lens.minimumFocusDistance to determine if lens is fixed focus In this mode, the lens does not move unless the autofocus trigger action is called. When that trigger is activated, AF must transition to ACTIVE_SCAN, then to the outcome of the scan (FOCUSED or NOT_FOCUSED). Triggering cancel AF resets the lens position to default, and sets the AF state to INACTIVE.
  • MACRO In this mode, the lens does not move unless the autofocus trigger action is called. When that trigger is activated, AF must transition to ACTIVE_SCAN, then to the outcome of the scan (FOCUSED or NOT_FOCUSED). Triggering cancel AF resets the lens position to default, and sets the AF state to INACTIVE.
  • CONTINUOUS_VIDEO In this mode, the AF algorithm modifies the lens position continually to attempt to provide a constantly-in-focus image stream. The focusing behavior should be suitable for good quality video recording; typically this means slower focus movement and no overshoots. When the AF trigger is not involved, the AF algorithm should start in INACTIVE state, and then transition into PASSIVE_SCAN and PASSIVE_FOCUSED states as appropriate. When the AF trigger is activated, the algorithm should immediately transition into AF_FOCUSED or AF_NOT_FOCUSED as appropriate, and lock the lens position until a cancel AF trigger is received. Once cancel is received, the algorithm should transition back to INACTIVE and resume passive scan. Note that this behavior is not identical to CONTINUOUS_PICTURE, since an ongoing PASSIVE_SCAN must immediately be canceled.
  • CONTINUOUS_PICTURE In this mode, the AF algorithm modifies the lens position continually to attempt to provide a constantly-in-focus image stream. The focusing behavior should be suitable for still image capture; typically this means focusing as fast as possible. When the AF trigger is not involved, the AF algorithm should start in INACTIVE state, and then transition into PASSIVE_SCAN and PASSIVE_FOCUSED states as appropriate as it attempts to maintain focus. When the AF trigger is activated, the algorithm should finish its PASSIVE_SCAN if active, and then transition into AF_FOCUSED or AF_NOT_FOCUSED as appropriate, and lock the lens position until a cancel AF trigger is received. When the AF cancel trigger is activated, the algorithm should transition back to INACTIVE and then act as if it has just been started.
  • EDOF Extended depth of field (digital focus). AF trigger is ignored, AF state should always be INACTIVE.
Whether AF is currently enabled, and what mode it is set to
android.control.afRegions int32 x 5 x area_count List of areas to use for focus estimation Each area is a rectangle plus weight: xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax, weight. The coordinate system is based on the active pixel array, with (0,0) being the top-left of the active pixel array, and (android.sensor.info.activeArraySize.width, android.sensor.info.activeArraySize.height) being the bottom-right point of the active pixel array. The weight should be nonnegative. If all regions have 0 weight, then no specific focus area needs to be used by the HAL. If the focusing region is outside the current android.scaler.cropRegion, the HAL should ignore the sections outside the region and output the used sections in the frame metadata
android.control.awbLock byte
  • ON Auto-whitebalance lock is enabled; the AWB algorithm must not update the exposure and sensitivity parameters while the lock is active
  • OFF Auto-whitebalance lock is disabled; the AWB algorithm is free to update its parameters if in AUTO mode.

android.control.awbRegions int32 x 5 x area_count List of areas to use for illuminant estimation Only used in AUTO mode. Each area is a rectangle plus weight: xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax, weight. The coordinate system is based on the active pixel array, with (0,0) being the top-left of the active pixel array, and (android.sensor.info.activeArraySize.width, android.sensor.info.activeArraySize.height) being the bottom-right point of the active pixel array. The weight should be nonnegative. If all regions have 0 weight, then no specific metering area needs to be used by the HAL. If the metering region is outside the current android.scaler.cropRegion, the HAL should ignore the sections outside the region and output the used sections in the frame metadata
android.control.captureIntent byte
  • CUSTOM This request doesn't fall into the other categories. Default to preview-like behavior.
  • PREVIEW This request is for a preview-like usecase. The precapture trigger may be used to start off a metering w/flash sequence
  • STILL_CAPTURE This request is for a still capture-type usecase.
  • VIDEO_RECORD This request is for a video recording usecase.
  • VIDEO_SNAPSHOT This request is for a video snapshot (still image while recording video) usecase

  • AUTO Use settings for each individual 3A routine. Manual control of capture parameters is disabled. All controls in android.control.* besides sceneMode take effect
  • USE_SCENE_MODE Use specific scene mode. Enabling this disables control.aeMode, control.awbMode and control.afMode controls; the HAL must ignore those settings while USE_SCENE_MODE is active (except for FACE_PRIORITY scene mode). Other control entries are still active. This setting can only be used if availableSceneModes != UNSUPPORTED
Overall mode of 3A control routines all must be supported
android.control.sceneMode byte
  • UNSUPPORTED 0
  • FACE_PRIORITY if face detection support exists Use face detection data to drive 3A routines. If face detection statistics are disabled, should still operate correctly (but not return face detection statistics to the framework). Unlike the other scene modes, aeMode, awbMode, and afMode remain active when FACE_PRIORITY is set. This is due to compatibility concerns with the old camera API

android.control.sceneModeOverrides byte x 3 x lengthavailablescenemodes List of AE, AWB, and AF modes to use for each available scene mode For each listed scene mode, lists the aeMode, awbMode, and afMode that the HAL wants to use for that scene mode. For each entry, the order is {aeMode, awbMode, afMode} in order of increasing index When a scene mode is enabled, the HAL is expected to override aeMode, awbMode, and afMode with its preferred settings for that scene mode. To simplify communication with old camera API applications, the service wants this override list in the static metadata. The order of this list matches that of availableSceneModes, with 3 entires for each scene mode. The overrides listed for SCENE_MODE_FACE_PRIORITY are ignored, since for that mode, the application-set aeMode, awbMode, and afMode are used instead, like they are when android.control.mode is AUTO. It is recommended that for FACE_PRIORITY, the overrides should be set to 0. As an example, if availableSceneModes is { FACE_PRIORITY, ACTION, NIGHT }, then the service expects this field to have 9 entries; for example { 0 , 0, 0, ON_AUTO_FLASH, AUTO, CONTINUOUS_PICTURE, ON_AUTO_FLASH, INCANDESCENT, AUTO }
