CameraServer
============

**Inherits:** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Server keeping track of different cameras accessible in Godot.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

The **CameraServer** keeps track of different cameras accessible in Godot. These are external cameras such as webcams or the cameras on your phone.

It is notably used to provide AR modules with a video feed from the camera.

\ **Note:** This class is currently only implemented on Linux, Android, macOS, and iOS. On other platforms no :ref:`CameraFeed<class_CameraFeed>`\ s will be available. To get a :ref:`CameraFeed<class_CameraFeed>` on iOS, the camera plugin from `godot-ios-plugins <https://github.com/godotengine/godot-ios-plugins>`__ is required.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_CameraServer_property_monitoring_feeds:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **monitoring_feeds** = ``false`` :ref:`🔗<class_CameraServer_property_monitoring_feeds>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_monitoring_feeds**\ (\ value\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>`\ )
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_monitoring_feeds**\ (\ )

If ``true``, the server is actively monitoring available camera feeds.

This has a performance cost, so only set it to ``true`` when you're actively accessing the camera.
