React tensorflow: Set back camera with getUserMedia

Question

I'm using tensorflow - react for object recognition on chrome. I want to use the back camera instead of the front one.

Here is the code:

  const webcamPromise = navigator.mediaDevices
        .getUserMedia({
          video: true,
          audio: false,
        })

It seems that adding facingMode: 'environment' doesn't work.

Answer 1

Where have you added facingMode: 'environment'? It should work with

navigator.mediaDevices
        .getUserMedia({
          video: {facingMode: 'environment'},
          audio: false,
        })
