<description>
The mode control selects how the image data is converted from the
sensor's native color into linear sRGB color.
</description>
<details>
When auto-white balance is enabled with android.control.awbMode, this
control is overridden by the AWB routine. When AWB is disabled, the
application controls how the color mapping is performed.
We define the expected processing pipeline below. For consistency
across devices, this is always the case with TRANSFORM_MATRIX.
When either FULL or HIGH_QUALITY is used, the camera device may
do additional processing but android.colorCorrection.gains and
android.colorCorrection.transform will still be provided by the
camera device (in the results) and be roughly correct.
Switching to TRANSFORM_MATRIX and using the data provided from
FAST or HIGH_QUALITY will yield a picture with the same white point
as what was produced by the camera device in the earlier frame.
The expected processing pipeline is as follows:
![White balance processing pipeline](android.colorCorrection.mode/processing_pipeline.png)
The white balance is encoded by two values, a 4-channel white-balance
gain vector (applied in the Bayer domain), and a 3x3 color transform
matrix (applied after demosaic).
The 4-channel white-balance gains are defined as:
android.colorCorrection.gains = [ R G_even G_odd B ]
where `G_even` is the gain for green pixels on even rows of the
output, and `G_odd` is the gain for green pixels on the odd rows.
These may be identical for a given camera device implementation; if
the camera device does not support a separate gain for even/odd green
channels, it will use the `G_even` value, and write `G_odd` equal to
`G_even` in the output result metadata.
The matrices for color transforms are defined as a 9-entry vector:
android.colorCorrection.transform = [ I0 I1 I2 I3 I4 I5 I6 I7 I8 ]
which define a transform from input sensor colors, `P_in = [ r g b ]`,
to output linear sRGB, `P_out = [ r' g' b' ]`,
with colors as follows:
r' = I0r + I1g + I2b
g' = I3r + I4g + I5b
b' = I6r + I7g + I8b
Both the input and output value ranges must match. Overflow/underflow
values are clipped to fit within the range.

in this matrix result metadata. The transform should keep the magnitude
of the output color values within `[0, 1.0]` (assuming input color

<range>
android.control.aeAvailableAntibandingModes
</range>
<details>
Some kinds of lighting fixtures, such as some fluorescent
lights, flicker at the rate of the power supply frequency
(60Hz or 50Hz, depending on country). While this is
typically not noticeable to a person, it can be visible to
a camera device. If a camera sets its exposure time to the
wrong value, the flicker may become visible in the
viewfinder as flicker or in a final captured image, as a
set of variable-brightness bands across the image.
Therefore, the auto-exposure routines of camera devices
include antibanding routines that ensure that the chosen
exposure value will not cause such banding. The choice of
exposure time depends on the rate of flicker, which the
camera device can detect automatically, or the expected
rate can be selected by the application using this
control.
A given camera device may not support all of the possible
options for the antibanding mode. The
android.control.aeAvailableAntibandingModes key contains
the available modes for a given camera device.
The default mode is AUTO, which must be supported by all
camera devices.
If manual exposure control is enabled (by setting
android.control.aeMode or android.control.mode to OFF),
then this setting has no effect, and the application must
ensure it selects exposure times that do not cause banding
issues. The android.statistics.sceneFlicker key can assist
the application in this.
</details>
<hal_details>
For all capture request templates, this field must be set
to AUTO. AUTO is the only mode that must supported;
OFF, 50HZ, 60HZ are all optional.
If manual exposure control is enabled (by setting
android.control.aeMode or android.control.mode to OFF),
then the exposure values provided by the application must not be
adjusted for antibanding.

android.sensor.sensitivity, and
android.sensor.frameDuration). If one of the FLASH modes
is selected, the camera device's flash unit controls are

The FLASH modes are only available if the camera device
has a flash unit (android.flash.info.available is `true`).
If flash TORCH mode is desired, this field must be set to

When set to OFF_KEEP_STATE, it is similar to OFF mode, the only difference
is that this frame will not be used by camera device background 3A statistics
update, as if this frame is never captured. This mode can be used in the scenario
where the application doesn't want a 3A manual control capture to affect

<description>
Ordered list of auto-exposure, auto-white balance, and auto-focus
settings to use with each available scene mode.
</description>
<range>
For each available scene mode, the list must contain three
entries containing the android.control.aeMode,
android.control.awbMode, and android.control.afMode values used
by the camera device. The entry order is `(aeMode, awbMode, afMode)`
where aeMode has the lowest index position.
</range>
<details>
When a scene mode is enabled, the camera device is expected
to override android.control.aeMode, android.control.awbMode,
and android.control.afMode with its preferred settings for
that scene mode.
The order of this list matches that of availableSceneModes,
with 3 entries for each mode. The overrides listed
for FACE_PRIORITY are ignored, since for that
mode the application-set android.control.aeMode,
android.control.awbMode, and android.control.afMode values are
used instead, matching the behavior when android.control.mode
is set to AUTO. It is recommended that the FACE_PRIORITY
overrides should be set to 0.
For example, if availableSceneModes contains
`(FACE_PRIORITY, ACTION, NIGHT)`, then the camera framework
expects sceneModeOverrides to have 9 entries formatted like:
`(0, 0, 0, ON_AUTO_FLASH, AUTO, CONTINUOUS_PICTURE,
ON_AUTO_FLASH, INCANDESCENT, AUTO)`.
</details>
<hal_details>
To maintain backward compatibility, this list will be made available
in the static metadata of the camera service. The camera service will
use these values to set android.control.aeMode,
android.control.awbMode, and android.control.afMode when using a scene
mode other than FACE_PRIORITY.

This control is only effective when flash unit is available

When this control is used, the android.control.aeMode must be set to ON or OFF.
Otherwise, the camera device auto-exposure related flash control (ON_AUTO_FLASH,
ON_ALWAYS_FLASH, or ON_AUTO_FLASH_REDEYE) will override this control.
When set to OFF, the camera device will not fire flash for this capture.
When set to SINGLE, the camera device will fire flash regardless of the camera
device's auto-exposure routine's result. When used in still capture case, this
control should be used along with AE precapture metering sequence
(android.control.aePrecaptureTrigger), otherwise, the image may be incorrectly exposed.
When set to TORCH, the flash will be on continuously. This mode can be used
for use cases such as preview, auto-focus assist, still capture, or video recording.
The flash status will be reported by android.flash.state in the capture result metadata.

This will not be supported on most camera devices. On devices

Lens filters are typically used to lower the amount of light the
sensor is exposed to (measured in steps of EV). As used here, an EV
step is the standard logarithmic representation, which are
non-negative, and inversely proportional to the amount of light
hitting the sensor. For example, setting this to 0 would result
in no reduction of the incoming light, and setting this to 2 would
mean that the filter is set to reduce incoming light by two stops
(allowing 1/4 of the prior amount of light to the sensor).
It may take several frames before the lens filter density changes

OIS is used to compensate for motion blur due to small movements of

the current status of the lens parameters.
When the state is STATIONARY, the lens parameters are not changing. This could be
either because the parameters are all fixed, or because the lens has had enough
time to reach the most recently-requested values.
If all these lens parameters are not changable for a camera device, as listed below:
* Fixed focus (`android.lens.info.minimumFocusDistance == 0`), which means
android.lens.focusDistance parameter will always be 0.
* Fixed focal length (android.lens.info.availableFocalLengths contains single value),
which means the optical zoom is not supported.
* No ND filter (android.lens.info.availableFilterDensities contains only 0).
* Fixed aperture (android.lens.info.availableApertures contains single value).
Then this state will always be STATIONARY.
When the state is MOVING, it indicates that at least one of the lens parameters
is changing.

RAW16 is a standard, cross-platform format for raw image

expected to have a Bayer Color Filter Array (CFA) layout, which
is given in android.sensor.info.colorFilterArrangement. Sensors
with CFAs that are not representable by a format in

<value optional="true" id="0x24">RAW_OPAQUE
<notes>
RAW_OPAQUE is a format for raw image buffers coming from an
image sensor. The actual structure of buffers of this format is
platform-specific, but must follow several constraints:
1. No image post-processing operations may have been applied to
buffers of this type. These buffers contain raw image data coming
directly from the image sensor.
1. If a buffer of this format is passed to the camera device for
reprocessing, the resulting images will be identical to the images
produced if the buffer had come directly from the sensor and was
processed with the same settings.
The intended use for this format is to allow access to the native
raw format buffers coming directly from the camera sensor without
any additional conversions or decrease in framerate.
See android.scaler.availableInputFormats for the full set of
performance guarantees.

</details>
<hal_details>
These format values are from HAL_PIXEL_FORMAT_* in

When IMPLEMENTATION_DEFINED is used, the platform
gralloc module will select a format based on the usage flags provided
by the camera HAL device and the other endpoint of the stream. It is
usually used by preview and recording streams, where the application doesn't
need access the image data.
YCbCr_420_888 format must be supported by the HAL. When an image stream
needs CPU/application direct access, this format will be used.
The BLOB format must be supported by the HAL. This is used for the JPEG stream.
A RAW_OPAQUE buffer should contain only pixel data. It is strongly
recommended that any information used by the camera device when
processing images is fully expressed by the result metadata
for that image buffer.

<details>
The maximum frame rate that can be supported by a camera subsystem is
a function of many factors:
* Requested resolutions of output image streams
* Availability of binning / skipping modes on the imager
* The bandwidth of the imager interface
* The bandwidth of the various ISP processing blocks
Since these factors can vary greatly between different ISPs and
sensors, the camera abstraction tries to represent the bandwidth
restrictions with as simple a model as possible.
The model presented has the following characteristics:
* The image sensor is always configured to output the smallest
resolution possible given the application's requested output stream
sizes. The smallest resolution is defined as being at least as large
as the largest requested output stream size; the camera pipeline must
never digitally upsample sensor data when the crop region covers the
whole sensor. In general, this means that if only small output stream
resolutions are configured, the sensor can provide a higher frame
rate.
* Since any request may use any or all the currently configured
output streams, the sensor and ISP must be configured to support
scaling a single capture to all the streams at the same time. This
means the camera pipeline must be ready to produce the largest
requested output size without any delay. Therefore, the overall
frame rate of a given configured stream set is governed only by the
largest requested stream resolution.
* Using more than one output stream in a request does not affect the
frame duration.
* JPEG streams act like processed YUV streams in requests for which
they are not included; in requests in which they are directly
referenced, they act as JPEG streams. This is because supporting a
JPEG stream requires the underlying YUV data to always be ready for
use by a JPEG encoder, but the encoder will only be used (and impact
frame duration) on requests that actually reference a JPEG stream.
* The JPEG processor can run concurrently to the rest of the camera
pipeline, but cannot process more than 1 capture at a time.
The necessary information for the application, given the model above,
is provided via the android.scaler.available*MinDurations fields.
These are used to determine the maximum frame rate / minimum frame
duration that is possible for a given stream configuration.
Specifically, the application can use the following rules to
determine the minimum frame duration it can request from the HAL
device:
1. Given the application's currently configured set of output
streams, `S`, divide them into three sets: streams in a JPEG format
`SJ`, streams in a raw sensor format `SR`, and the rest ('processed')
`SP`.
1. For each subset of streams, find the largest resolution (by pixel
count) in the subset. This gives (at most) three resolutions `RJ`,
`RR`, and `RP`.
1. If `RJ` is greater than `RP`, set `RP` equal to `RJ`. If there is
no exact match for `RP == RJ` (in particular there isn't an available
processed resolution at the same size as `RJ`), then set `RP` equal
to the smallest processed resolution that is larger than `RJ`. If
there are no processed resolutions larger than `RJ`, then set `RJ` to
the processed resolution closest to `RJ`.
1. If `RP` is greater than `RR`, set `RR` equal to `RP`. If there is
no exact match for `RR == RP` (in particular there isn't an available
raw resolution at the same size as `RP`), then set `RR` equal to
or to the smallest raw resolution that is larger than `RP`. If
there are no raw resolutions larger than `RP`, then set `RR` to
the raw resolution closest to `RP`.
1. Look up the matching minimum frame durations in the property lists
android.scaler.availableJpegMinDurations,
android.scaler.availableRawMinDurations, and
android.scaler.availableProcessedMinDurations. This gives three
minimum frame durations `FJ`, `FR`, and `FP`.
1. If a stream of requests do not use a JPEG stream, then the minimum
supported frame duration for each request is `max(FR, FP)`.
1. If a stream of requests all use the JPEG stream, then the minimum
supported frame duration for each request is `max(FR, FP, FJ)`.
1. If a mix of JPEG-using and non-JPEG-using requests is submitted by
the application, then the HAL will have to delay JPEG-using requests
whenever the JPEG encoder is still busy processing an older capture.
This will happen whenever a JPEG-using request starts capture less
than `FJ` _ns_ after a previous JPEG-using request. The minimum
supported frame duration will vary between the values calculated in
\#6 and \#7.

Each color channel is treated as an unsigned 32-bit integer.

</value>
<value>SOLID_COLOR
<notes>
Each pixel in `[R, G_even, G_odd, B]` is replaced by its
respective color channel provided in
android.sensor.testPatternData.
For example:
android.testPatternData = [0, 0xFFFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF, 0]
All green pixels are 100% green. All red/blue pixels are black.
android.testPatternData = [0xFFFFFFFF, 0, 0xFFFFFFFF, 0]
All red pixels are 100% red. Only the odd green pixels
are 100% green. All blue pixels are 100% black.
</notes>
</value>
<value>COLOR_BARS
<notes>
All pixel data is replaced with an 8-bar color pattern.
The vertical bars (left-to-right) are as follows:
* 100% white
* yellow
* cyan
* green
* magenta
* red
* blue
* black
In general the image would look like the following:
W Y C G M R B K
W Y C G M R B K
W Y C G M R B K
W Y C G M R B K
W Y C G M R B K
. . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . .
(B = Blue, K = Black)
Each bar should take up 1/8 of the sensor pixel array width.
When this is not possible, the bar size should be rounded
down to the nearest integer and the pattern can repeat
on the right side.
Each bar's height must always take up the full sensor
pixel array height.
Each pixel in this test pattern must be set to either
0% intensity or 100% intensity.
</notes>
</value>
<value>COLOR_BARS_FADE_TO_GRAY
<notes>
The test pattern is similar to COLOR_BARS, except that
each bar should start at its specified color at the top,
and fade to gray at the bottom.
Furthermore each bar is further subdivided into a left and
right half. The left half should have a smooth gradient,
and the right half should have a quantized gradient.
In particular, the right half's should consist of blocks of the
same color for 1/16th active sensor pixel array width.
The least significant bits in the quantized gradient should
be copied from the most significant bits of the smooth gradient.
The height of each bar should always be a multiple of 128.
When this is not the case, the pattern should repeat at the bottom
of the image.
</notes>
</value>
<value>PN9
<notes>
All pixel data is replaced by a pseudo-random sequence
generated from a PN9 512-bit sequence (typically implemented
in hardware with a linear feedback shift register).
The generator should be reset at the beginning of each frame,
and thus each subsequent raw frame with this test pattern should
be exactly the same as the last.
</notes>
</value>
<value id="256">CUSTOM1
<notes>The first custom test pattern. All custom patterns that are

<range>Optional. Defaults to OFF. Value must be one of

When a test pattern is enabled, all manual sensor controls specified
by android.sensor.* should be ignored. All other controls should
work as normal.
For example, if manual flash is enabled, flash firing should still
occur (and that the test pattern remain unmodified, since the flash
would not actually affect it).
</details>
<hal_details>
All test patterns are specified in the Bayer domain.
The HAL may choose to substitute test patterns from the sensor
with test patterns from on-device memory. In that case, it should be
indistinguishable to the ISP whether the data came from the
sensor interconnect bus (such as CSI2) or memory.

When set to other modes, lens shading correction will be applied by the
camera device. Applications can request lens shading map data by setting
android.statistics.lensShadingMapMode to ON, and then the camera device will provide

<description>The shading map is a low-resolution floating-point map
that lists the coefficients used to correct for vignetting, for each
Bayer color channel.</description>
<range>Each gain factor is &amp;gt;= 1</range>
<details>The least shaded section of the image should have a gain factor
of 1; all other sections should have gains above 1.
When android.colorCorrection.mode = TRANSFORM_MATRIX, the map
must take into account the colorCorrection settings.
The shading map is for the entire active pixel array, and is not
affected by the crop region specified in the request. Each shading map
entry is the value of the shading compensation map over a specific
pixel on the sensor. Specifically, with a (N x M) resolution shading
map, and an active pixel array size (W x H), shading map entry
(x,y) ϵ (0 ... N-1, 0 ... M-1) is the value of the shading map at
pixel ( ((W-1)/(N-1)) * x, ((H-1)/(M-1)) * y) for the four color channels.
The map is assumed to be bilinearly interpolated between the sample points.
The channel order is [R, Geven, Godd, B], where Geven is the green
channel for the even rows of a Bayer pattern, and Godd is the odd rows.
The shading map is stored in a fully interleaved format, and its size
is provided in the camera static metadata by android.lens.info.shadingMapSize.
The shading map should have on the order of 30-40 rows and columns,
and must be smaller than 64x64.
As an example, given a very small map defined as:
android.lens.info.shadingMapSize = [ 4, 3 ]
android.statistics.lensShadingMap =
[ 1.3, 1.2, 1.15, 1.2, 1.2, 1.2, 1.15, 1.2,
1.1, 1.2, 1.2, 1.2, 1.3, 1.2, 1.3, 1.3,
1.2, 1.2, 1.25, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.1, 1.0,
1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.2, 1.3, 1.25, 1.2,
1.3, 1.2, 1.2, 1.3, 1.2, 1.15, 1.1, 1.2,
1.2, 1.1, 1.0, 1.2, 1.3, 1.15, 1.2, 1.3 ]
The low-resolution scaling map images for each channel are
(displayed using nearest-neighbor interpolation):

Many light sources, such as most fluorescent lights, flicker at a rate

The camera device uses this entry to tell the application what the scene
illuminant frequency is.

the android.control.aeAntibandingMode doesn't do the antibanding, and the

Each channel's curve is defined by an array of control points:
android.tonemap.curveRed =
[ P0in, P0out, P1in, P1out, P2in, P2out, P3in, P3out, ..., PNin, PNout ]
2 &amp;lt;= N &amp;lt;= android.tonemap.maxCurvePoints
These are sorted in order of increasing `Pin`; it is always
guaranteed that input values 0.0 and 1.0 are included in the list to
define a complete mapping. For input values between control points,
the camera device must linearly interpolate between the control
points.
Each curve can have an independent number of points, and the number
of points can be less than max (that is, the request doesn't have to
always provide a curve with number of points equivalent to
android.tonemap.maxCurvePoints).
A few examples, and their corresponding graphical mappings; these
only specify the red channel and the precision is limited to 4
digits, for conciseness.

When switching to an application-defined contrast curve by setting
android.tonemap.mode to CONTRAST_CURVE, the curve is defined
per-channel with a set of `(in, out)` points that specify the
mapping from input high-bit-depth pixel value to the output
low-bit-depth value. Since the actual pixel ranges of both input
and output may change depending on the camera pipeline, the values
are specified by normalized floating-point numbers.
More-complex color mapping operations such as 3D color look-up
tables, selective chroma enhancement, or other non-linear color
transforms will be disabled when android.tonemap.mode is
CONTRAST_CURVE.
When using either FAST or HIGH_QUALITY, the camera device will
emit its own tonemap curve in android.tonemap.curveRed,
android.tonemap.curveGreen, and android.tonemap.curveBlue.
These values are always available, and as close as possible to the
actually used nonlinear/nonglobal transforms.
If a request is sent with TRANSFORM_MATRIX with the camera device's
provided curve in FAST or HIGH_QUALITY, the image's tonemap will be
roughly the same.</details>

<description> Whether black-level compensation is locked

<details>When set to ON, the values used for black-level
compensation will not change until the lock is set to
OFF.
Since changes to certain capture parameters (such as
exposure time) may require resetting of black level
compensation, the camera device must report whether setting
the black level lock was successful in the output result
metadata.
For example, if a sequence of requests is as follows:
* Request 1: Exposure = 10ms, Black level lock = OFF
* Request 2: Exposure = 10ms, Black level lock = ON
* Request 3: Exposure = 10ms, Black level lock = ON
* Request 4: Exposure = 20ms, Black level lock = ON
* Request 5: Exposure = 20ms, Black level lock = ON
* Request 6: Exposure = 20ms, Black level lock = ON
And the exposure change in Request 4 requires the camera
device to reset the black level offsets, then the output
result metadata is expected to be:
* Result 1: Exposure = 10ms, Black level lock = OFF
* Result 2: Exposure = 10ms, Black level lock = ON
* Result 3: Exposure = 10ms, Black level lock = ON
* Result 4: Exposure = 20ms, Black level lock = OFF
* Result 5: Exposure = 20ms, Black level lock = ON
* Result 6: Exposure = 20ms, Black level lock = ON
This indicates to the application that on frame 4, black
levels were reset due to exposure value changes, and pixel
values may not be consistent across captures.
The camera device will maintain the lock to the extent
possible, only overriding the lock to OFF when changes to
other request parameters require a black level recalculation
or reset.
</details>
<hal_details>
If for some reason black level locking is no longer possible
(for example, the analog gain has changed, which forces
black level offsets to be recalculated), then the HAL must
override this request (and it must report 'OFF' when this
does happen) until the next capture for which locking is

</range>
<details>
When a request is submitted to the camera device, there is usually a
delay of several frames before the controls get applied. A camera
device may either choose to account for this delay by implementing a
pipeline and carefully submit well-timed atomic control updates, or
it may start streaming control changes that span over several frame
boundaries.
In the latter case, whenever a request's settings change relative to
the previous submitted request, the full set of changes may take
multiple frame durations to fully take effect. Some settings may
take effect sooner (in less frame durations) than others.
While a set of control changes are being propagated, this value
will be CONVERGING.
Once it is fully known that a set of control changes have been
finished propagating, and the resulting updated control settings
have been read back by the camera device, this value will be set
to a non-negative frame number (corresponding to the request to
which the results have synchronized to).
Older camera device implementations may not have a way to detect
when all camera controls have been applied, and will always set this
value to UNKNOWN.
FULL capability devices will always have this value set to the
frame number of the request corresponding to this result.
_Further details_:
* Whenever a request differs from the last request, any future
results not yet returned may have this value set to CONVERGING (this
could include any in-progress captures not yet returned by the camera
device, for more details see pipeline considerations below).
* Submitting a series of multiple requests that differ from the
previous request (e.g. r1, r2, r3 s.t. r1 != r2 != r3)
moves the new synchronization frame to the last non-repeating
request (using the smallest frame number from the contiguous list of
repeating requests).
* Submitting the same request repeatedly will not change this value
to CONVERGING, if it was already a non-negative value.
* When this value changes to non-negative, that means that all of the
metadata controls from the request have been applied, all of the
metadata controls from the camera device have been read to the
updated values (into the result), and all of the graphics buffers
corresponding to this result are also synchronized to the request.
_Pipeline considerations_:
Submitting a request with updated controls relative to the previously
submitted requests may also invalidate the synchronization state
of all the results corresponding to currently in-flight requests.
In other words, results for this current request and up to
android.request.pipelineMaxDepth prior requests may have their
android.sync.frameNumber change to CONVERGING.
</details>
<hal_details>
Using UNKNOWN here is illegal unless android.sync.maxLatency
is also UNKNOWN.
FULL capability devices should simply set this value to the
`frame_number` of the request this result corresponds to.

This defines the maximum distance (in number of metadata results),
between android.sync.frameNumber and the equivalent
android.request.frameCount.
In other words this acts as an upper boundary for how many frames
must occur before the camera device knows for a fact that the new
submitted camera settings have been applied in outgoing frames.
For example if the distance was 2,
initial request = X (repeating)
request1 = X
request2 = Y
request3 = Y
request4 = Y
where requestN has frameNumber N, and the first of the repeating
initial request's has frameNumber F (and F &lt; 1).
initial result = X' + { android.sync.frameNumber == F }
result1 = X' + { android.sync.frameNumber == F }
result2 = X' + { android.sync.frameNumber == CONVERGING }
result3 = X' + { android.sync.frameNumber == CONVERGING }
result4 = X' + { android.sync.frameNumber == 2 }
where resultN has frameNumber N.
Since `result4` has a `frameNumber == 4` and
`android.sync.frameNumber == 2`, the distance is clearly
`4 - 2 = 2`.
</details>
<hal_details>
Use `frame_count` from camera3_request_t instead of
android.request.frameCount.
LIMITED devices are strongly encouraged to use a non-negative
value. If UNKNOWN is used here then app developers do not have a way
to know when sensor settings have been applied.
