White Balance Control Mode

org.firstinspires.ftc.robotcore.external.hardware.camera.controls.WhiteBalanceControl.Mode

This interface supports 3 values of WhiteBalanceControl.Mode:

  • AUTO

  • MANUAL

  • UNKNOWN

To directly control the color balance temperature, set the webcam to Manual mode. Mode is managed with these WhiteBalanceControl methods:

  • setMode(WhiteBalanceControl.Mode.MODE)

  • getMode()

The Logitech C920 defaults to Auto mode for white balance control, and even reverts to Auto in a fresh session, after being set to Manual in a previous session. For other CameraControl settings, some webcams revert to a default value and some preserve their last commanded value.
