Examples

using Windows.Media.Capture;

MediaCapture mediaCapture = new MediaCapture();

public MainPage()
{
    this.InitializeComponent();
}

protected override async void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
{
    await mediaCapture.InitializeAsync();

    // Preview is Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.CaptureElement defined in XAML file
    // and used to render camera preview
    Preview.Source = mediaCapture;
    await mediaCapture.StartPreviewAsync();

    if (!TryIncrementInfraredPower())
    {
        Debug.WriteLine("Failed to increment InfraredTorch power");
    }
}

private bool TryIncrementInfraredPower()
{
    bool incrementSucceeded = false;

    if (mediaCapture.VideoDeviceController.InfraredTorchControl.IsSupported)
    {
        Debug.WriteLine("IR torch supported");
        InfraredTorchControl infraredTorchControl = mediaCapture.VideoDeviceController.InfraredTorchControl;
        var maxPower = infraredTorchControl.MaxPower;
        var powerStep = infraredTorchControl.PowerStep;
        var oldPower = infraredTorchControl.Power;

        if (oldPower < maxPower)
        {
            infraredTorchControl.Power = oldPower + powerStep;
            incrementSucceeded = true;
        }
        else
        {
            Debug.WriteLine("InfraredTorch is already at max power");
        }
    }

    return incrementSucceeded;
}

Remarks

The InfraredTorchControl enables apps to control the power and behavior of the Infrared LED.

You can find out if a device supports this control by checking InfraredTorchControl.IsSupported.

You can access the InfraredTorchControl for the capture device through MediaCapture.VideoDeviceController.

Properties

CurrentMode	Gets the current operation mode of the infrared LED.
IsSupported	Gets a value that indicates if the capture device supports the InfraredTorchControl.
MaxPower	Gets the maximum infrared LED power value supported by the capture device.
MinPower	Gets the minimum infrared LED power value supported by the capture device.
Power	Gets or sets the current infrared LED power value.
PowerStep	Gets the supported power step value.
SupportedModes	SupportedModes property is used to find out modes that the infrared LED supports.
