How to automatically take a picture without pressing the phototaken button on the imagepickercontroller?

Question

In my project, I need to take pictures automatically every one minute. But I can\'t find out any solutions.

This is the code which I implemented but it doesn\'t work

Answer 1

Finally I figured out the solution.

I use the

 AVCaptureVideoDataOutputSampleBufferDelegate

to take pictures automatically.

- (void)captureOutput:(AVCaptureOutput *)captureOutput didOutputSampleBuffer:(CMSampleBufferRef)sampleBuffer   
   fromConnection:(AVCaptureConnection *)connection 

It is pretty simple and thank you @sch all the same for your help :)
