In this chapter, you saw the types that Qt Quick provides for managing audio and video media, as well as how to control the camera (if one exists). Using these types, you can add sound effects and ambient audio to your applications, which will make your videos more pleasing and help viewers to understand better what is being put across. You can also play videos from resources, the filesystem, or the web. In addition, as well as controlling the camera, if one exists, you can also capture still and moving images with it.
In the next chapter, we will look at the support that Qt has for accessing hardware sensors, such as those pertaining to the device location, orientation, and power state.
