Hi

I am working on trying to create an API on Asus Windows Mobile 6 phone that can capture an image/video with some visual cues/feedback(such as a box drawn in the middle) while the user is capturing the image/video. While it is possible to invoke the inbuilt camera capture application of the mobile phone, but it is difficult to play around with it. In effect I had downloaded an API from the website (http://community.opennetcf.com/articles/cf/archive/2007/08/30/image-manipulation-in-windows-mobile-5.aspx), which does provide a small GUI with the buttons to capture the image and record a video but does not stream any images from the camera lens.

My question is that "is it possible for me to somehow load the input from the camera lens without invoking the inbuilt camera API, so that I can display some bounding boxes over the streamed image on the GUI while the user is capturing the image or recording a video".

Any kind of help will be highly appreciated.

Regards

Vinayak
