Google Camera might soon have native support for RAW images

The code of the new update reveals some interesting feature including support for RAW images, a solution to resolve the angular distortion in images, a multi-channel audio support for recording surround-sound and an automatic framerate adjusting tool.

 

According to the report, the Google Camera will resolve the issue with the processing algorithm for correcting the wide-angle face distortion and will also work on making the faces look natural by making up for the angular changes. This is expected to reduce the fish-eye effect which appears in some of the images.

One of the other strings that were spotted in the Android APK teardown suggests that the Google Camera app will soon have the ability to assess the external lighting situations and automatically select the best frame rate value in order to provide optimal exposure and better quality for the video.

One of the most interesting tool which was spotted in the APK teardown was the 'shiny feature', which is said to be the code for two audio functionalities including IMAX AUDIO and microphone. The code further reveals that the multi-channel audio recording will be activated when more than one microphone is available in a device which in turn will enable the sound audio recordings.
