using Android camera for webcamTexture in Google Cardboard

Unity Engine
1

Hello All,
i have a few question that i could not solve here.
I just want to make a simple VR Apps that show images taken from my Android camera to a raw images using webcamTextures. here is the step that i follow

  1. i follow the tutorial shown here:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6NXkZWXHnc
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class textureFromWebcam : MonoBehaviour
{

    private bool camAvailable;
    WebCamTexture backCam;
    private Texture defaultBackground;

    public RawImage background;
    public AspectRatioFitter aspectRatio;

    // Use this for initialization
    void Start()
    {

        defaultBackground = background.texture;
        WebCamDevice[] devices = WebCamTexture.devices;

        if (devices.Length == 0)
        {
            Debug.Log("no camera detected");
            camAvailable = false;
            return;
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < devices.Length; i++)
        {
            if (!devices[i].isFrontFacing)
            {
                backCam = new WebCamTexture(devices[i].name);
            }
            if (backCam == null)
            {
                Debug.Log("unable to find backCam");
                return;
            }
            backCam.Play();
            background.texture = backCam;
        }

    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        if (!camAvailable)
        {
            return;
        }
    }
}
  1. i made the canvas to be the “world space” so i can look around to see the Raw Images floating
  2. i try the apps at the editor and it working nice
  3. i build it to my android, while the playerSetting->XR Setting->Virtual Reality Supported is checked. i use Cardboard SDK
  4. the apps is running succesfully, but the image from my webcamTexture did not show anything

please does anyone know why this is happening? or does it a bug??

thank you Unity
