I have to developed a Windows application to remote control a camera from a pc for a photo booth. Basically this app will control zoom, exposure and shoot with a live view on the PC screen.
I'd like to use a Sony DSC RX10. Does this camera support Sony SDK ? If yes, are theses basic features supported by the SDK for the RX10 ?
Thanx !
The RX10 does support the API although the documentation do not mention this camera. I own a RX10 and developed a Windows Phone app for this camera as Sony only provides an Android and an iPhone version. The RX10 supports the same functions as e.g. the RX100M (see the list of supported devices and functions on https://developer.sony.com/develop/cameras/).
Exposure control is not supported by the API, zoom, shoot and live view are OK.

Can laptop's web camera used in the latest Hololens emulator ?
I'm following this tutorial https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/mr-azure-302 to integrate MS Computer Vision API into Hololens.
I want to test this in the Hololens emulator before moving to the device. So, Will I be able to enable Web Cam for recognizing objects using vision API.I'm using Hololens Emulator 10.0 version.
The simple answer is No. HL has own cameras, not compatible with a webcam.
Update. For the case, I would recommend creating video processing library and test it in simple desktop application.
I am wondering if it's possible to use the Sony Sony Camera Remote API beta SDK / AddOn SDK / Smart Extension API to control action cameras functionality by my application side via BlueTooth (no Wi-Fi).
My goal is to write an extension which will mainly:
Mandatory: start and stop video saving on camera internal memory
Optional: , insert allarms, set video acquisition parameters, ecc.
Does anyone have:
the information if this SDK is the right choice to control this type of Sony device
if it's possible to reach my described goal with it or if there are any impossibilities
other related information or special requirements for controlling Sony cameras via bluetooth.
Thanks
Unfortunately you will only be able to use Wifi to control cameras with the camera remote API.
Is there anyone aware if there is a Sony Camera "simulator" available?
This may greatly ease the development task of SDK based applications.
Unfortunately there is no emulator or simulator currently available. You will have to have an actual camera to test with.
I have the RX100-M3 camera, and it seems that some applications can be developed for it.
As far as I understand, the CameraRemoteAPI SDK can be used to develop Android or iOS applications. So is there a way to develop applications for the Sony camera?
I would like to develop a feature to be able to:
set the timer (from 2s to 2min)
select the number of shots (from 1 to 2000)
select the time between shots.
There is an existing "intervalometer" application but it is very expensive.
Camera Remote API SDK allows one to remotely control the supported Sony cameras including RX100M3 from any other device, by sending HTTP commands to the camera. The application you create can run from any
platform Android, iOS , Windows, PC, etc. You will have to connect this device to the camera over WiFi.
To get more information, please download the SDK, which contains sample applications and API documentation.

I am developing an application with Flash Lite designed to run on Nokia S60 5th edition phones using the Flash Lite API Bridge Interface. The application uses the API Bridge to access the phones camera and upload functionality to take a photo, display it to the user then upload it to a server. I am using Flash CS4 Professional and Device Central to develop and test the interface.
Are there any emulators that will run my flash lite app and simulate the camera? What are my options short of getting a phone and installing my app every time I want to test something new?
