val cameraManager = getSystemService(Context.CAMERA_SERVICE) as CameraManager
try {
    val cameraIds = manager.cameraIdList
    for (id in cameraIds) {
        println("Found camera id " + id)
        val charac = manager.getCameraCharacteristics(id)
        val capabilities = charac.get(CameraCharacteristics.REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES);
        for (capability in capabilities) {
            if (capability == CameraMetadata.REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_DEPTH_OUTPUT) {
                println("Depth is available);
            }
       }
