Nice! Are there any other docs changes that mention Stream and Stream.Next to get image?

there are a few more, going through now-- thanks for reminding me! I had already changed on the vision and camera APIs but looking now there are a few more instances where this is used.

LGTM though I'm curious how the video feed on a camera test panel works and if we want to elude to that?

it seems to function just the same as before, although I am unsure how exactly it works. @hexbabe do you think we need to add any additional information here and if so what would it be?

I think behavior on app should be exactly the same as before. If it isn't then it's a bug

What I mean is that, if it's possible to stream video from a camera, should we be telling people how so they don't think they can only get static images and not video?

In the context of this doc change PR, it is not possible to stream video from a camera using the camera interface API itself in any SDK besides TS and Flutter

[hexbabe]

The now-removed Golang Stream is a bit of a misnomer which is a big reason why it was removed. TS and Flutter use RenderFrame, AddStream (which is not camera API) and some webrtc magic to achieve true streams.

[hexbabe]

Sorry I think I'm being unclear. For the camera component docs, I don't think we should mention streaming because streaming cannot be achieved with just camera API methods.

Ooh ty for the explanation
