Use a Session and attached Stream to receive frames and capture photos.
Key concepts
- Session: Device connection lifecycle created through
Wearables.createSession(...) - Stream: Camera stream accessed via
camera.streamafter attaching the camera withsession.addCamera(...) - StreamConfiguration: Resolution and frame rate configuration for the stream
- PhotoData: Still image captured from glasses while streaming
Create a session and attach a stream

val session = Wearables.createSession(AutoDeviceSelector()).getOrElse { error ->
throw IllegalStateException(error.description)
}
session.start()
val camera: Camera = session.addCamera(
StreamConfiguration(
videoQuality = VideoQuality.MEDIUM,
frameRate = 24,
),
).getOrElse { error ->
throw IllegalStateException(error.description)
}
camera.stream.start().getOrElse { error ->
throw IllegalStateException(error.description)
}
Resolution options
| Quality | Size |
|---------|------|
| VideoQuality.HIGH | 720 x 1280 |
| VideoQuality.MEDIUM | 504 x 896 |
| VideoQuality.LOW | 360 x 640 |
Frame rate options
Valid values: 2, 7, 15, 24, 30 FPS.
Lower resolution and frame rate usually produce better visual quality per frame over Bluetooth.
Observe stream state
StreamState transitions: STOPPED -> STARTING -> STARTED -> STREAMING -> STOPPING -> STOPPED -> CLOSED
lifecycleScope.launch {
camera.stream.state.collect { state ->
when (state) {
StreamState.STREAMING -> {
// Frames are flowing
}
StreamState.STOPPED -> {
// Streaming ended
}
StreamState.CLOSED -> {
// Stream fully closed
}
else -> Unit
}
}
}
Receive frames
lifecycleScope.launch {
camera.stream.videoStream.collect { frame ->
updatePreview(frame)
}
}
Capture a photo
lifecycleScope.launch {
camera.stream.capturePhoto()
.onSuccess { photoData ->
val imageBytes = photoData.data
savePhoto(imageBytes)
}
.onFailure { error, _ ->
showCaptureError(error.description)
}
}
Clean up
Stop the stream when you no longer need camera data, then stop the parent session if the device interaction is finished.
camera.stop()
session.stop()
If you want to remove the capability entirely before re-adding it, call session.removeCamera().

Create beautiful visual art in .png and .pdf documents using design philosophy. You should use this skill when the user asks to create a poster, piece of art, design, or other static piece. Create original visual designs, never copying existing artists' work to avoid copyright violations.
Creating algorithmic art using p5.js with seeded randomness and interactive parameter exploration. Use this when users request creating art using code, generative art, algorithmic art, flow fields, or particle systems. Create original algorithmic art rather than copying existing artists' work to avoid copyright violations.
Improves the quality of images, especially screenshots, by enhancing resolution, sharpness, and clarity. Perfect for preparing images for presentations, documentation, or social media posts.
Create and edit JSON Canvas files (.canvas) with nodes, edges, groups, and connections. Use when working with .canvas files, creating visual canvases, mind maps, flowcharts, or when the user mentions Canvas files in Obsidian.
Publish Markdown articles to X (Twitter) Articles editor with proper formatting. Use when user wants to publish a Markdown file/URL to X Articles, or mentions "publish to X", "post article to Twitter", "X article", or wants help with X Premium article publishing. Handles cover image upload and converts Markdown to rich text automatically.
Downloads videos from YouTube and other platforms for offline viewing, editing, or archival. Handles various formats and quality options.
Teaches the AI to design like a high-end agency. Defines the exact fonts, spacing, shadows, card structures, and animations that make a website feel expensive. Blocks all the common defaults that make AI designs look cheap or generic.
Lightweight WSI tile extraction and preprocessing. Use for basic slide processing tissue detection, tile extraction, stain normalization for H&E images. Best for simple pipelines, dataset preparation, quick tile-based analysis. For advanced spatial proteomics, multiplexed imaging, or deep learning pipelines use pathml.
