isDepthSupported

Check if the current camera device supports depth data capture.

Usage

const supportsDepth = await camera.current?.isDepthSupported();

Returns

Promise<boolean>

true for dual/triple rear cameras and TrueDepth front camera
false for single rear cameras (iPhone SE, 16e, Air)

Example

import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { Button, Text } from "react-native";
import { ZCamera } from "@succinctlabs/react-native-zcam1";
 
function CameraWithDepth({ captureInfo }) {
  const camera = useRef<ZCamera>(null);
  const [supportsDepth, setSupportsDepth] = useState(false);
  const [depthEnabled, setDepthEnabled] = useState(false);
 
  useEffect(() => {
    camera.current?.isDepthSupported().then(setSupportsDepth);
  }, []);
 
  const handleCapture = async () => {
    const photo = await camera.current?.takePhoto({
      includeDepthData: depthEnabled
    });
    console.log("Captured with depth:", depthEnabled);
  };
 
  return (
    <>
      <ZCamera 
        ref={camera} 
        captureInfo={captureInfo}
        depthEnabled={depthEnabled}
      />
      {supportsDepth && (
        <Button 
          title={`Depth: ${depthEnabled ? 'ON' : 'OFF'}`}
          onPress={() => setDepthEnabled(!depthEnabled)}
        />
      )}
      <Button title="Capture" onPress={handleCapture} />
    </>
  );
}

Notes

Depth data is captured using AVFoundation's depth data output
On dual-camera devices, enabling depth may restrict zoom range
Use hasDepthZoomLimitations() to check if depth affects zoom on your device
Depth data is embedded in the C2PA metadata when includeDepthData: true
