Leadtools.Camera.Xamarin Getting Started

Summary

Leadtools.Camera.Xamarin is a .NET Standard Assembly designed for building cross-platform mobile camera applications for the Android and iOS platforms. One line of XAML markup opens the door to capture images, record video, control the flash/torch, and focus the camera. Additionally, developers can tap into the live camera feed to process frames in real-time, or add LEADTOOLS features, including barcode recognition, OCR, and image processing filters.

Xamarin Framework Deprecation

As of LEADTOOLS v23, The cross-platform Xamarin framework has been deprecated and replaced with LEADTOOLS .NET MAUI framework.

For any LEADTOOLS Xamarin apps you have already built, we recommend you migrate to the LEADTOOLS .NET MAUI framework. To help you with the migration, review the LEADTOOLS .NET MAUI tutorials to get you started.

This change is driven by Microsoft's announcement to end Xamarin support.
