setVideoZoomFactor method
A value that controls the cropping and enlargement of images captured by the device.
This value is a multiplier. For example, a value of 2.0 doubles the size
of an image’s subject (and halves the field of view). Allowed values range
from 1.0 (full field of view) to the value of the active format’s
videoMaxZoomFactor property. Setting the value of this property jumps
immediately to the new zoom factor. For a smooth transition, use the
rampToVideoZoomFactor
The device achieves a zoom effect by cropping around the center of the
image captured by the sensor. At low zoom factors, the cropped images is
equal to or larger than the output size. At higher zoom factors, the
device must scale the cropped image up to the output size, resulting in a
loss of image quality. The active format’s
videoZoomFactorUpscaleThreshold property indicates the factors at which
upscaling occurs.
Before changing the value of this property, you must call lockForConfiguration to acquire exclusive access to the device’s configuration properties. Otherwise, setting the value of this property raises an exception. When you finish configuring the device, call unlockForConfiguration to release the lock and allow other devices to configure the settings.
Implementation
Future<void> setVideoZoomFactor(double factor) {
return _channel.$setVideoZoomFactor(this, factor);
}
