ios - Setting a background image/view to live camera view?

Question

Is it possible to set a background for a particular view controller to show a live camera view? If so, could one lead me in the right direction to make this possible?

Answer 1

Yes, definitely possible. You can embed live camera feed in UIView, which you can place anywhere you like.

Start by reading here: AVFoundation Reference - this is your framework

Particular class that you are looking for is AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer

Which works in unison with AVCaptureSession

And this is an example project that covers everything you need: AVCam
