Maemo: /* Imaging and Sharing High Level Architecture */

Maemo — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 17:41:54 GMT

Imaging and Sharing High Level Architecture

New page

= Imaging and Sharing High Level Architecture=

Subsystems of Imaging and Sharing domain are implementing means to produce, review, change, and share photography content on the device.

Following user-accessible applications are provided by Imaging and Sharing domain:
* Camera Application is a graphical interface to camera hardware. It accesses OMAP3 camera HW subsystem through a GStreamer-based middleware.
* Image Viewer allows to view photographs and images and supports simple/basic image editing functionality.

Sharing subsystem provides direct integration to an extensible set of internet services like OVI, with simple interface for uploading (i.e. “sharing”) content e.g. images to those services.

The diagram below shows the main interfaces of the domain.

''Imaging and Sharing, Software Context''

==Interfaces provided==
{|border=1
|'''Interface'''
|'''Description'''
|-
|Image Viewer UI
|The primary user interface for viewing still images and manipulating them.
|-
|Sharing UI
|The user interface for sharing content via internet services such as Nokia’s OVI.
|-
|Camera UI
|The primary user interface for using the device’s camera for capturing still images and video.
|-
|GDigicam
|An abstraction over complex set of GStreamer pipelines used to perform still image and video capturing.
|-
|Sharing plug-in extensions
|An interface for external developers to extend Sharing subsystem's reach to internet services.
|-
|Viewing capability
|Image Viewer application is the device’s primary means to view images, and it thus launched when user wants to handle the associated image files.
|}
