The command "emulator -avd ${name} -webcam-list" is used to launch the Android emulator and list the available webcams (cameras) that can be used with the emulator.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "emulator": This is the command-line tool provided by the Android SDK (Software Development Kit) that allows you to run the Android emulator.
- "-avd ${name}": This option specifies the Android Virtual Device (AVD) that you want to launch. The "${name}" placeholder represents the name of the AVD you want to use. AVDs are pre-configured device profiles that simulate different Android devices.
- "-webcam-list": This option instructs the emulator to list the available webcams that can be accessed by the emulator. It provides information about the webcams such as their names, IDs, and available resolutions.
By running this command, you can see the list of webcams that can be used with the Android emulator, which can be helpful when you want to test camera-related features or functionalities in your Android application.
