Android emulator camera custom image
Does anybody know is it possible to open some personal picture when emulator camera starts?
I have an application which is based on image analysis and I would like when I click a button for camera that camera opens not that default Android emulator moving image. I want it to open some image which I set as a default image. So when I choose to take a picture it will show only that image and when I take a take a picture, that image will be saved to gallery, not Android default image.

Under Tools > AVD Manager, select the "pencil" to get to "Virtual Device Configuration". Show Advanced Settings > Camera will give you the option of using emulated, or a device:
Device - use host computer webcam or built-in camera
If all you need is to get a still image into the camera, starting with Android Studio 3.2 you can put your static images into the virtual scene:
as discussed in this entry from Android developers blog. Note that you'll need to move the camera position into the dining room to see your images (turn around and use Alt-w to move forward).
