White balance temperature#
In white balance mode custom, the custom temperature is defined with a specific setting.
Camera 1#
Sample code to monitor white balance temperature:
/** Reference on MainCamera peripheral. */
private var cameraRef: Ref<MainCamera>? = null
/** Monitors and prints white balance temperature. */
fun monitorWhiteBalanceTemperature(drone: Drone) {
cameraRef = drone.getPeripheral(MainCamera::class.java) { camera ->
// called on main thread when the camera peripheral changes
camera?.whiteBalance()?.run {
if (supportedCustomTemperatures().isEmpty()) {
// setting value is not relevant if there is no supported value
println("No supported value")
} else {
// get setting value
val temperature = customTemperature()
println("Current value: $temperature")
// updating flag
println("Updating: $isUpdating")
}
}
}
}
Example of output:
Current value is: K_1500
Updating: false
Sample code to modify white balance temperature:
/** Sets white balance temperature. */
fun setWhiteBalanceTemperature(drone: Drone, temperature: CameraWhiteBalance.Temperature) {
drone.getPeripheral(MainCamera::class.java)?.run {
// set setting value
whiteBalance().setCustomTemperature(temperature)
}
}
Trying to change the setting value to an unsupported value has no effect.
Values supported by the camera are provided by CameraWhiteBalance.Setting.supporteCustomTemperature()
.
Camera 2#
White balance temperature is configured with parameter Camera.Config.WHITE_BALANCE_TEMPERATURE
.
Sample code to monitor white balance temperature:
/** Reference on MainCamera peripheral. */
private var cameraRef: Ref<MainCamera>? = null
/** Monitors and prints white balance temperature. */
fun monitorWhiteBalanceTemperature(drone: Drone) {
cameraRef = drone.getPeripheral(MainCamera::class.java) { camera ->
camera?.run {
// get configuration parameter
config[Camera.Config.WHITE_BALANCE_TEMPERATURE].run {
if (supportedValues(onlyCurrent = true).isEmpty()) {
// parameter value is not relevant
// if there is not supported values in current configuration
println("No supported value in current configuration")
} else {
println("Current value: $value")
}
}
}
}
}
Example of output:
Current value is: K_1500
Sample code to modify white balance temperature:
/** Sets white balance temperature. */
fun setWhiteBalanceTemperature(drone: Drone, temperature: Camera.WhiteBalanceTemperature) {
drone.getPeripheral(MainCamera::class.java)?.run {
// create configuration editor, starting from current configuration
val editor = config.edit(fromScratch = false)
// get configuration parameter
editor[Camera.Config.WHITE_BALANCE_TEMPERATURE].let { configParam ->
// change parameter value,
// and unset other parameters conflicting with this new value
configParam.value = temperature
// complete configuration, by setting missing parameters values
editor.autoComplete()
// send new configuration to drone
editor.commit()
}
}
}
Trying to change the parameter value to an unsupported value has no effect.
Values supported by the camera are retrieved by calling configParam.supportedValues(onlyCurrent = false)
