Android - Camera Example

Let us start actual programming with Android Framework
Before you start writing your Camera application example using Android SDK,
you have to make sure that you have set-up your Android development
environment properly as explained in Android

Create Android Application

1. The Application First Step Create a New Project Start project

2. Rename Application Name Below Screen Ex: Camera App
Click Next

3. After Spacific Minium sdk API 23 Select Lolipop 5.0
Click Next

4. Final Select Blank Activity And Click Finish
Click Next

5. Then Select MainActivity Click Finish

6.  Then Open a Android Studio

1. MainActivity.Java
