Kiosk apps can currently trigger monitor calibration with chrome.system.display.overscan*
We need a similar set of APIs to allow apps to invoke the new touch calibration UI.
Would love to get this into 57, but I'm guessing 58 is more realistic.
This is already a part of the touchscreen calibration being implemented.
The API methods are already available to 1)set touch screen calibration as well as 2)start the inbuilt touch screen calibration UX. https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/extensions/common/api/system_display.idl?rcl=0&l=280
1) Setting Calibration Data: Currently the calibration data can be set using the API.
The CL related to utilising this calibration data is yet to be checked in and is currently under review. Rest of the piping is already complete and checked in.
(Corresponding CL: https://codereview.chromium.org/2557163002)
2) Starting the native calibration process via the API: Despite the API interface being available, its implementation is yet to be checked in. This will have to be punted to M58.
Your change meets the bar and is auto-approved for M57. Please go ahead and merge the CL to branch 2987 manually. Please contact milestone owner if you have questions.
