public static final enumConfig.FocusMode
On supported devices, selects the desired camera focus mode. On these devices, the default
desired focus mode is currentlyFIXED, although this default might
change in the future. See theARCore
supported devicespage for a list of devices on which ARCore does not support changing the
desired focus mode.
For optimal AR tracking performance, use the focus mode provided by the default session
config. While capturing pictures or video, useAUTO. For optimal AR
tracking, revert to the default focus mode once auto focus behavior is no longer needed. If
your app requires fixed focus camera, callConfig.setFocusMode(Config.FocusMode)usingFIXEDbefore enabling the AR session. This ensures that your app always uses
fixed focus, even if the default camera config focus mode changes in a future release.
