RPi/Python Code to control Camera Module with preview on local HDMI @AndroidEric

Uploaded March 2021 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

In my usage scenario: The Raspberry Pi is installed with HQ Camera Module (mount with manual focus lens) and a 4 inch HDMI IPS Display. Remote control with Android with xrdp/Microsoft Remote Desktop. Such that I can control and change setting on remote Android device, adjust focus/aperture on the lens, and check the effect on local HDMI preview at real-time.
