Typedefs

ArImage

struct ArImage_ ArImage

Accessing CPU image from the camera (reference type, large data).

Acquire with: ArFrame_acquireCameraImage
Release with: ArImage_release.

ArImageCubemap

ArImage * ArImageCubemap[6]

Convenient definition for cubemap image storage where it is a fixed size array of 6 ArImage.

Functions

ArImage_getFormat

void ArImage_getFormat(
  const ArSession *session,
  const ArImage *image,
  ArImageFormat *out_format
)

Gets the image format of the provided ArImage.

Details

Parameters

`session`	The ARCore session.
`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`out_format`	The image format, one of `ArImageFormat` values.

ArImage_getHeight

void ArImage_getHeight(
  const ArSession *session,
  const ArImage *image,
  int32_t *out_height
)

Gets the height of the input ArImage.

Details

Parameters

`session`	The ARCore session.
`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`out_height`	The height of the image in pixels.

ArImage_getNumberOfPlanes

void ArImage_getNumberOfPlanes(
  const ArSession *session,
  const ArImage *image,
  int32_t *out_num_planes
)

Gets the number of planes in the provided ArImage.

The number of planes and format of data in each plane is format dependent. Use ArImage_getFormat to determine the format.

Details

Parameters

`session`	The ARCore session.
`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`out_num_planes`	The number of planes in the image.

ArImage_getPlaneData

void ArImage_getPlaneData(
  const ArSession *session,
  const ArImage *image,
  int32_t plane_index,
  const uint8_t **out_data,
  int32_t *out_data_length
)

Gets the data pointer of the provided image for direct application access.

Note that once the ArImage data is released with ArImage_release, the data pointer from the corresponding ArImage_getPlaneData call becomes invalid. Do NOT use it after the ArImage is released.

Details

Parameters

`session`	The ARCore session.
`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`plane_index`	The index of the plane, between 0 and n-1, where n is number of planes for this image.
`out_data`	The data pointer to the image.
`out_data_length`	The length of data in bytes.

ArImage_getPlanePixelStride

void ArImage_getPlanePixelStride(
  const ArSession *session,
  const ArImage *image,
  int32_t plane_index,
  int32_t *out_pixel_stride
)

Gets the byte distance between the start of two consecutive pixels in the image.

The pixel stride is always greater than 0.

Details

Parameters

`session`	The ARCore session.
`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`plane_index`	The index of the plane, between 0 and n-1, where n is number of planes for this image.
`out_pixel_stride`	The plane stride of the image in bytes.

ArImage_getPlaneRowStride

void ArImage_getPlaneRowStride(

Gets the number of bytes between the start of two consecutive rows of pixels in the image.

The row stride is always greater than 0.

Details

Parameters

`session`	The ARCore session.
`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`plane_index`	The index of the plane, between 0 and n-1, where n is number of planes for this image.
`out_row_stride`	The row stride of the image in bytes.

ArImage_getTimestamp

void ArImage_getTimestamp(
  const ArSession *session,
  const ArImage *image,
  int64_t *out_timestamp_ns
)

Gets the source-specific timestamp of the provided ArImage in nanoseconds.

The timestamp is normally monotonically increasing. The timestamps for the images from different sources may have different timebases and should not be compared with each other. The specific meaning and timebase of the returned timestamp depends on the source providing images.

Details

Parameters

`session`	The ARCore session.
`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`out_timestamp_ns`	The timestamp of the image in nanoseconds.

ArImage_getWidth

void ArImage_getWidth(

`image`	The `ArImage` of interest.
`out_width`	The width of the image in pixels.

ArImage_release

void ArImage_release(
