Image
extends Object

| java.lang.Object | |
| ↳ | android.media.Image |
A single complete image buffer to use with a media source such as a
MediaCodec or a
CameraDevice.
This class allows for efficient direct application access to the pixel
data of the Image through one or more
ByteBuffers. Each buffer is encapsulated in a
Image.Plane that describes the layout of the pixel data in that plane. Due
to this direct access, and unlike the Bitmap class,
Images are not directly usable as as UI resources.
Since Images are often directly produced or consumed by hardware components, they are a limited resource shared across the system, and should be closed as soon as they are no longer needed.
For example, when using the ImageReader class to read out Images
from various media sources, not closing old Image objects will prevent the
availability of new Images once
the maximum outstanding image count is
reached. When this happens, the function acquiring new Images will typically
throw an IllegalStateException.

void close ()
Free up this frame for reuse.
After calling this method, calling any methods on this Image will
result in an IllegalStateException, and attempting to read from
or write to ByteBuffers returned by an earlier
getBuffer() call will have undefined behavior. If the image
was obtained from ImageWriter via
dequeueInputImage(), after calling this method, any
image data filled by the application will be lost and the image will be
returned to ImageWriter for reuse. Images given to
queueInputImage() are automatically
closed.
Rect getCropRect ()
Get the crop rectangle associated with this frame.
The crop rectangle specifies the region of valid pixels in the image, using coordinates in the largest-resolution plane.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
Rect |
|
int getFormat ()
Get the format for this image. This format determines the number of ByteBuffers needed to represent the image, and the general layout of the pixel data in each in ByteBuffer.
The format is one of the values from
ImageFormat. The mapping between the
formats and the planes is as follows:
| Format | Plane count | Layout details |
|---|---|---|
JPEG |
1 | Compressed data, so row and pixel strides are 0. To uncompress, use
BitmapFactory#decodeByteArray.
|
YUV_420_888 |
3 | A luminance plane followed by the Cb and Cr chroma planes. The chroma planes have half the width and height of the luminance plane (4:2:0 subsampling). Each pixel sample in each plane has 8 bits. Each plane has its own row stride and pixel stride. |
YUV_422_888 |
3 | A luminance plane followed by the Cb and Cr chroma planes. The chroma planes have half the width and the full height of the luminance plane (4:2:2 subsampling). Each pixel sample in each plane has 8 bits. Each plane has its own row stride and pixel stride. |
YUV_444_888 |
3 | A luminance plane followed by the Cb and Cr chroma planes. The chroma planes have the same width and height as that of the luminance plane (4:4:4 subsampling). Each pixel sample in each plane has 8 bits. Each plane has its own row stride and pixel stride. |
FLEX_RGB_888 |
3 | A R (red) plane followed by the G (green) and B (blue) planes. All planes have the same widths and heights. Each pixel sample in each plane has 8 bits. Each plane has its own row stride and pixel stride. |
FLEX_RGBA_8888 |
4 | A R (red) plane followed by the G (green), B (blue), and A (alpha) planes. All planes have the same widths and heights. Each pixel sample in each plane has 8 bits. Each plane has its own row stride and pixel stride. |
RAW_SENSOR |
1 | A single plane of raw sensor image data, with 16 bits per color
sample. The details of the layout need to be queried from the source of
the raw sensor data, such as
CameraDevice.
|
RAW_PRIVATE |
1 | A single plane of raw sensor image data of private layout.
The details of the layout is implementation specific. Row stride and
pixel stride are undefined for this format. Calling getRowStride()
or getPixelStride() on RAW_PRIVATE image will cause
UnSupportedOperationException being thrown.

| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
See also:
int getHeight ()
The height of the image in pixels. For formats where some color channels are subsampled, this is the height of the largest-resolution plane.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
Plane[] getPlanes ()
Get the array of pixel planes for this Image. The number of planes is
determined by the format of the Image. The application will get an empty
array if the image format is PRIVATE, because the image pixel data is not directly accessible. The
application can check the image format by calling
getFormat().
| Returns | |
|---|---|
Plane[] |
|
long getTimestamp ()
Get the timestamp associated with this frame.
The timestamp is measured in nanoseconds, and is normally monotonically
increasing. The timestamps for the images from different sources may have
different timebases therefore may not be comparable. The specific meaning and
timebase of the timestamp depend on the source providing images. See
Camera,
CameraDevice,
MediaPlayer and MediaCodec for more details.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
long |
|
int getWidth ()
The width of the image in pixels. For formats where some color channels are subsampled, this is the width of the largest-resolution plane.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
void setCropRect (Rect cropRect)
Set the crop rectangle associated with this frame.
The crop rectangle specifies the region of valid pixels in the image, using coordinates in the largest-resolution plane.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
cropRect |
Rect
|
void setTimestamp (long timestamp)
Set the timestamp associated with this frame.
The timestamp is measured in nanoseconds, and is normally monotonically
increasing. The timestamps for the images from different sources may have
different timebases therefore may not be comparable. The specific meaning and
timebase of the timestamp depend on the source providing images. See
Camera,
CameraDevice,
MediaPlayer and MediaCodec for more details.
For images dequeued from ImageWriter via
dequeueInputImage(), it's up to the application to
set the timestamps correctly before sending them back to the
ImageWriter, or the timestamp will be generated automatically when
queueInputImage() is called.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
timestamp |
long:
The timestamp to be set for this image.
