I need to create an app that with Appmobi or Phonegap that will be able to take an automatic picture with a time interval.

Is it possible to perform this?

I know hot to launch the camera with 30 seconds interval, but I need to launch the camera and take a picture. The device will be on a quadcopter, so no human interaction will be avalilable.

I think you have to use camera.getPicture

function onSuccess(imageData) {
    var image = document.getElementById('myImage');
    image.src = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + imageData;
}

function onFail(message) {
    alert('Failed because: ' + message);
}

function getPicture(){
   navigator.camera.getPicture(onSuccess, onFail, { quality: 50 }); 
}

setInterval(getPicture, 30000);

  • Thanks, but this code do not automate the user click action on camera's button. I need to take pictures without user's interaction with a 30 seconds interval. – Iker Vázquez Apr 20 '13 at 20:26
  • @IkerVázquez This cannot be automated due to restrictions on devices. Imagine the security risks if this were possible. – Luke Taylor Jun 30 '16 at 14:57
