is it possible to access the IR laser API? if so, how? - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

the IR laser auto focus measures the distance vary accurately and fast.
i want to use this to build an app for that. does anybody know how i access this data on the original Oxygen 2.0.2?

Do other camera apps use laser focus? If so, they might be having access to the API

[Q] IR Learning sensor?

Hi, as the title says, does anyone know if this has an IR sensor for universal remote use?
If so, does it have the learning feature?
Thanks.
No its doesn't
Thanks waterninja21,
Is that a no to the IR altogether or just the learning feature?
Motorola's online chat person was sure it could be used with IR apps.
No ir at all.

IR sensor yes. IR blaster no so this device can NOT be used as a Universal remote unfortunately. Personally the moto website spec list is a bit misleading. When I first read it said IR but was referring to the sensor and I took that as being a blaster too.

Let's try to enable 32 seconds shutter speed?

Hi everyone!
Since zenfone zoom, selfie and laser have manual exposure up to 32 seconds, why wouldn't this be possible with ZE551ML too? I was thinking about acrchitecture, but the zoom is x86 too, so there must be some way to unlock this in our phone (and possibly on zenfone 5 and 6 too).
What could be done to fool the pixelmaster camera app to think it's installed on a zenfone laser or zoom? editing build.prop? does anyone have a laser or zoom here that could maybe check the settings and config so we could try to enable this?
This was posted in general thread and it works, but limited to 1 second and I did not see a difference in the resulting photo:

Since many smartphone out there can shoot at very slow shutter speed (some ****ty chinese phone can shoot 32s long). Im asking u guys any solution to increase the shutter speed more than 1 second?
Any ideas are welcome.
have you even checked if the sensor is the same across these devices? the 551mml uses a toshiba t4k37 sensor.
edit: yea so the zoom uses a panasonic smartFSI sensor so i highly doubt your just going to "enable" the features missing as the toshiba sensor in the 551ml most likly doesnt support the same shutter speed as the panasonic sensor

I agree, the sensors are not the same on the zoom and the zf2, but what about laser and selfie?
Would that be tied to sensor driver limits or OS limits? after all, the same pixelmaster camera is used across devices, so maybe there would be a chance anyway.

from what i can tell the laser and selfie use the same toshiba sensor but with laser auto focusing (hence the name =P)
so if its true and the laser and selfie do have that option then maybe it isnt hardware limited on our phone. but then again im no expert it could have something to do with the intel chipset too being as the laser and selfie use a snapdragon cpu.
but as you stated the first thing you might try is changing the build.prop to show the 551ml as the laser or selfie.

Yup, I'll go to laser/selfie forums and ask for their build.prop and camera_profiles.xml and will fiddle with those.
I'll be back with my results.
see my post, have 32's exposure

Is the laser AF bull****?

In all devices with Laser AutoFocus I tested, including my nexus, occluding the laser sensor with my finger didn't change how the phone focused or how fast it takes for it to focus...
is this sensor just a waste of money and space?
Given that this device is cheaper than equivalent models I don't care if it works or not.

It costs more than a galaxy s7 in Israel.
And it doesn't even have an IR blaster.
I am talking about laser auto focus in general as the laser on the G3 and LG G4 does nothing special as well.

Laser ruler

I had an Asus Zenfone Laser 2, based on a SD 615, but with 64 bit Android. That phone had a similar front camera setup, in the sense that it used a laser beam to measure the focus distance for short distances.
What was kind of neat it was that they added an app called "Laser ruler" thatbwas using the camera sensor to measure distances to various objects in close proximity.
Well that app won't work on our 32 bit Android.
Does anyone knows of a similar app that could work on our G4 Plus?

Does the Google Pixel camera port use secondary camera lens for portrait mode?

Does anyone know if this port uses the second lens on the Oneplus for portrait depth/bokeh effect? The reason I ask is I'm debating between Oneplus 5 & 5T (due to front facing fingerprint sensor on the 5) but the secondary camera on 5 is f/2.6 compared to f/1.7 on 5T. If this port is not using the second camera, then I do not need to worry about camera differences.

Go with the 5t
To answer your question though, the port only uses both cameras on pie, it can not do so on Oreo
