Nikon D3200 Android USB control


I have a tablet having Android operating system, and a Nikon D3200 camera. I was wondering if there is any way to connect them together so that I can use the tablet as a remote control. I have already done this on my PC (using digiCamControl).


Would it be possible to connect those two devices with an USB cable and take pictures with an application on the Android device? Does something like this already exist?

To be able to use the application with your USB connected DSLR you will need an Android device that supports the USB host function and an USB OTG adapter that you can buy cheap on internet or build it yourself.



The application is free, GPLv3-licensed, and can be found here:
