    if (cameras.length === 0) {
      throw 'No camera found on this device.';

    const camera = cameras[cameras.length - 1];

    // Create stream and get video track
    navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({
      video: {
        deviceId: camera.deviceId,
        facingMode: ['user', 'environment'],
        height: {ideal: 1080},
        width: {ideal: 1920}

    }).then(stream => {
      const track = stream.getVideoTracks()[0];

      //Create image capture object and get camera capabilities
      const imageCapture = new ImageCapture(track)
      const photoCapabilities = imageCapture.getPhotoCapabilities().then(() => {

        //todo: check if camera has a torch
