Android And LabVIEW

[Johnson1213]

I want to take photo with my phone, and send the data to LabVIEW system, How to do it?

[Johnson1213]

How to solve it?

[billko]

I guess by doing some coding.  Are you just doing this to familiarize yourself with LabVIEW?  There are probably better, easier ways to do it.

There are several ways to send data.

Are you looking for a Wifi or USB transfer?

I'm not sure it matters. You need some sort of socket:

There are some android apps that turn your phone camera into a PC webcam (USB of wifi). Have not tried if that would work.

Generic answer to your generic question:

1. Take the photo with your phone camera app.
2. Send that image using the email app of the phone to your email account.
3. Start an email program on your computer, receive the email and save the image attachment to your harddrive.
4. Start LabVIEW and load the image file using the image file functions…

Seems quite easy, isn't it?

I without doing the project for you I would: 

1) Set up a web service in Azure that accepts client connections for data transfer. 

2) Create an Android App, (I recommend Flutter because it has some nice Azure web service integration tools and it builds for iOS as well) that you can take a picture and push it to your Azure cloud app. 

3) finally write some Labview code that logs into your cloud app and pulls the picture and displays it. (Labview does not have great Azure integration tools but you can get at .NET which does have some Azure web service integration)

LabVIEW can auto download the image form email?

I try to convert the color image to array, and send to LabVIEW, it was unsuccessful.
