I am creating a web application (completely running on the server, no Android App) and I want to have the possibility to provide a button for taking a photo. After touching the button, the camera of this Android phone should get startet, let the user take a photo, and after that automatically upload the photo to my web app.
Is there a way to do this? If yes: How ?
A pure web application without a client side component can not access the phone camera.
There is only a plan for introducing such a feature in future web browsers:
HTML5 new features – accessing the native device camera
Update (2012-04-25): I just read that the upcoming version 12 of Opera will include camera support.
