Is there any solution to take picture using laptop camera with Flutter desktop?

Question

Is there any solution to take picture using the laptop camera with Flutter desktop (on Windows)? I don't want to use go-flutter.

I managed to open the camera referring to this Git repository, https://github.com/westracer/flutter_native_opencv, but the camera opens up in a new window, also not able to capture the image. Thanks. — Alexis, Nov 25 '21 at 14:06

You would need to write a plugin that implements it using Windows APIs.

Since the Texture widget isn't supported for Windows yet, you would need to use a separate native window for any live preview UI.

did you have already write something like that ? like an example on how to communicate between flutter desktop app and a native window. – Nadim Gouia Jan 28 '20 at 10:50
The file_chooser plugin opens a separate window. – smorgan Jan 28 '20 at 16:40
