Many Windows Store apps are developed to capture and manage media files. In this course, you will learn how to use APIs to capture video, audio and photos, and how to configure Play To to stream media. You will also learn how to configure your app to interact with sensors such as accelerometers and location services and work with devices such as USBs. This course is one of a series in the learning path that covers the objectives for the Microsoft Exam 70-485: Advanced Windows Store App Development Using C#. This exam is a requirement for the Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer (MCSD): Windows Store Apps certification.
