public function CopyRawImageDataIntoBuffer(byteBuffer: List<byte>): void;
public void CopyRawImageDataIntoBuffer(List<byte> byteBuffer);

Parameters

byteBuffer The destination byte list to which the raw captured image data will be copied to.

Description

Will copy the raw IMFMediaBuffer image data into a byte list.

If you would like to do your own image processing on the byte data in an external plugin or on another thread, you may want to copy the raw IMFMediaBuffer data into your own byte list.

For more information about the WinRT IMFMediaBuffer object, please vist https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms696261(v=vs.85).aspx

This example will capture an Image from the Web Camera and manually copy the image data out of a raw IMFMediaBuffer object into a Texture and display it on a GameObject.

CameraParameters c = new CameraParameters(); c.cameraResolutionWidth = targetTexture.width; c.cameraResolutionHeight = targetTexture.height; c.pixelFormat = CapturePixelFormat.BGRA32;

// In this example, we captured the image using the BGRA32 format. // So our stride will be 4 since we have a byte for each rgba channel. // The raw image data will also be flipped so we access our pixel data // in the reverse order. int stride = 4; float denominator = 1.0f / 255.0f; List<Color> colorArray = new List<Color>(); for (int i = imageBufferList.Count - 1; i >= 0; i -= stride) { float a = (int)(imageBufferList[i - 0]) * denominator; float r = (int)(imageBufferList[i - 1]) * denominator; float g = (int)(imageBufferList[i - 2]) * denominator; float b = (int)(imageBufferList[i - 3]) * denominator;
