Are there any members interested in using the Open Spherical Camera API?
I've had my Ricoh Theta S for a couple of months now and want to be able to remotely take a picture using a bluetooth controller.
I can then keep my mobile safely in my pocket while out and about taking panoramas.
The official android Theta S app doesn't have this feature so i decided to wrap the Ricoh Theta API v2 so that i could write a b4a app that'll enable me to take pictures using my controller.
If there's any interest from forum members then i'll make the library available.
It's (very) early days so far.
My library currently supports:
Need to add some more features:
That's all i currently need from my library, but there are loads more options and features that could be added.
Then the library could be made to support cameras other than the Ricoh Theta S - the LG 360 CAM and (soon to be released in the UK) Samsung Gear 360 for example.
My library files and a demo project are attached.

My library currently supports:
- Taking a picture.
- Displaying a live image preview.
- Getting the camera device info.
- Getting a list of pictures stored on the device.
Need to add some more features:
- Pass GPS Location to camera so that the camera can geotag pictures as they are taken.
- Set the Ricoh custom '_filter' option so i can take 'HDR' pictures.
