Spy Camera Android App
1) Background/ Problem Statement
Spy Camera is an Android based project that allows the user to program
their mobile phone camera to discreetly click photos or record videos. A user
simply needs to first specify whether they wish to use the front camera or the
back camera along with the number of photos to be clicked and the buffer
time between the photos.
Similarly, the users can also use this system to discreetly record videos
as well. This application works seamlessly even in the background of your
locked phone and does not require the camera application to be open.
The user can also stop the app from taking pictures and recording videos
manually without having to open the application.
2) Working of the Project
As the name goes, we spy clicking photos or filming without anyone knowing,
the app won’t show any kind of preview. The Main Goal of This App is to Click
Picture or Record the Video from The Back/Front Camera Even If the App Is
Closed without anyone knowing. In this app, the user has a setting screen
where he/she can select if he/she wants to click photo on duration or photo
counts also he/she can decide on a buffer time so that the app will wait the
time mentioned by the user before clicking another photo. He/she can also
select where to click the photo from the back camera or the front camera.
There is also a setting where the user can adjust the duration for the video
recording and also that the video that will be recorded should be from the
front camera or the back camera. Once the photo or video is captured or
filmed the user can view the photo/video in the app, they can share or delete
the same. once the process is started app will be closed automatically and a
notification will be displayed on the phone if the user wants to stop the
process manually, he/she can click the notification and stop the process or wait
until the process automatically ends as per the conditions selected on the
settings page. The Photos or Videos Captured cannot be seen anywhere i.e., in
