Describe the problem

The conflict between expo camera @ "^ 13.4.4" resulted in installation dependency failure, but after expo 50, a new version of the camera is installed by default, and the new camera is not compatible with the old camera

expo document : https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/camera/

by the way: I want to use the transpose api about the image to handle image

    const imageBuffer = await Image.resolveAssetSource(require("@/assets/images/dogs.jpg")).uri;
    const imageData = await fetch(imageBuffer);
    const imageBlob = await imageData.blob();
    const imageArrayBuffer = await imageBlob.arrayBuffer();
    const imageUint8Array = new Uint8Array(imageArrayBuffer);
    
    // 将图像转换为 TensorFlow.js 张量并进行预处理
    const imageTensor = decodeJpeg(imageUint8Array);
    const inputImage = tf.transpose(imageTensor, [2, 0, 1]).expandDims(0).div(tf.scalar(255));

@JRfan123 The imports in tfjs-react-native for expo camera are not up to date. With SDK the expo-camera import changed from 'expo-camera' to 'expo-camera/lagacy'. It would be better if the tfjs-react-native would be updated to newer expo versions but at the moment i'll get no progress on this. Maybe you have time to create a pull request for requesting the changes.

[JRfan123]

ok ， i will try it

[gaikwadrahul8]

Hi, @JRfan123

I apologize for the delayed response and @Jersyfi thank you for your pointers and I see Expo changelog from official documentation You can find the old versions at expo-camera/legacy and expo-sqlite/legacy during SDK 51, and they will be removed in SDK 52. so following an initial assessment, it appears that updating @tensorflow/tfjs-react-native to support newer Expo versions might be required.

I will raise this issue for discussion in our upcoming internal meeting and provide a status update soon. We are also open to contributions on this matter. Feel free to submit a pull request for our team's review and we will take appropriate action to integrate your contribution if it aligns with our goals.

// Legacy APIs (SDK 50)
import { Camera } from 'expo-camera';

// Legacy APIs (SDK 51): if you import the legacy packages in your app, update
// the imports to the following:
import { Camera } from 'expo-camera/legacy';

Thank you for your cooperation and patience.

[Jersyfi]

@gaikwadrahul8 Thank you for seeing the need of updating. It would make sence to update to the newest expo-camera API and also to support the newest expo-gl version and drop the expo-gl-cpp. On Expo SDK 50 the @tensorflow/tfjs-react-native package was running with high performance issues for iOS and Android and not on all devices. I can provide the package.json with the running versions for SDK 50.

@JRfan123 did you get the SDK 51 running on your side? Maybe i can help out with spending some time.

[JRfan123]

@Jersyfi I apologize for the delayed response, I had successfully in my side , and I will try to make a pull request this week

Is it merged yet? we are still facing the same issue

[EmePin]

@Jersyfi How did you make it work on SDK 51? and does the apk work for you with eas build -p android --profile preview?

[gimhantharuke456]

Anyone solved this issue ?

[Jersyfi]

At the moment i can't continue the update to SDK51 but @JRfan123 already made a PR https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs/pull/8306 that need attention. @gaikwadrahul8 can you please have a look at the changes? I overlooked it even if it is minimalistic but it makes sense with reading the changelog on expo-camera.

Any updates on this topic?

[joaointech]

Facing the same problem! :(

[gimhantharuke456]

I tried so many ways finally I decided to make an api and work with the model

[chrisdev3001]

In my case camera and model.predict working only on IOS (using expo go) but with android is like that the model is predicting nothing using estimatePoses :(

any updates about this?

I've tried to use legacy camera and it is not working enought

Hey, I’ve been having issues with integrating TensorFlow's pose estimation models on iOS/Android for a couple of years too... So, I shifted to a different approach a few months ago—using a Node.js API with tfjs that I call within an iframe to process the images. My API is PoseTracker.com (https://www.posetracker.com/), additionally, we've been developing pre-trained fitness exercises! A big advantage is that there's no need to install any SDK/libraries—just call the API. We are focus mainly on pose estimation, but I'm open to exploring other models as well, so feel free to reach out!

[Martinnord]

Will this be supported or what?

[johannbuscail]

@gaikwadrahul8 Any update ?

[immanuel-rajadurai]

I am facing the same issue #8292 as described by JRfan123.

I need to build an APK asap this weekend. Any quick fix?

[YangMun]

I have the same problem. I need to recognize hands for sign language learning. Currently expo: 52 SDK, expo-camera: 16.0.7. @tensorflow/tfjs-react-native version of the crash is happening and it doesn't even come up in the document, so I'd like to know how to fix this.

[ArtjomUEA]

Can we get an update on this, please? The package is pretty much unusable in its current state. Downgrading expo-camera to 13.4.4 leads to a bunch of other issues, so would be nice if this worked with more recent versions

[stevemer]

Agreed... I've spent about 12 hours now bumping dependency versions around, and still can't get the boilerplate example to run successfully. Pretty disappointed with the state of this package.

[aaaroz]

is there's any update on this issue?

[gimhantharuke456]

is there's any update on this issue?

actually no mate, either u have to make an api or downgrade the expo version

[aaaroz]

actually no mate, either u have to make an api or downgrade the expo version

all right, i decided to make an api instead

[sanjaiyan-dev]

Opened this PR https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs/pull/8521 to resolve the issue with package updates and React Native architecture alignment.

[MrBCftw]

running expo 53. Any solution? I'm still having issues.
