Android Camera2 API + TextureView overlay for drawing on camera preview

So, I need to overlay camera2 preview and draw a rectangle on the preview image, overlaying a transparent overlay on top. I started with some basic Camera2 code here: https://github.com/googlesamples/android-Camera2Basic

above, use TextureView to preview the camera.

Then I added the following class for the project

private class CustomView extends SurfaceView {

    private final Paint paint;
    private final SurfaceHolder mHolder;
    private final Context context;

    public CustomView(Camera2BasicFragment context) {
        super(context.getActivity().getBaseContext());
        mHolder = getHolder();
        mHolder.setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSPARENT);
        this.context = context.getActivity().getBaseContext();
        paint = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
        paint.setColor(Color.WHITE);
        paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
        super.onDraw(canvas);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
            invalidate();
            if (mHolder.getSurface().isValid()) {
                final Canvas canvas = mHolder.lockCanvas();
                Log.d("touch", "touchRecieved by camera");
                if (canvas != null) {
                    Log.d("touch", "touchRecieved CANVAS STILL Not Null");
                    canvas.drawColor(Color.TRANSPARENT, PorterDuff.Mode.CLEAR);
                    canvas.drawColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
                    canvas.drawCircle(event.getX(), event.getY(), 100, paint);
                    mHolder.unlockCanvasAndPost(canvas);
                    new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                        @Override
                        public void run() {
                            Canvas canvas1 = mHolder.lockCanvas();
                            if(canvas1 !=null){
                                canvas1.drawColor(0, PorterDuff.Mode.CLEAR);
                                mHolder.unlockCanvasAndPost(canvas1);
                            }

                        }
                    }, 1000);

                }
                mHolder.unlockCanvasAndPost(canvas);


            }
        }


        return false;
    }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

I need help doing this job. Obviously the new class hasn't been used yet. I also need to update the xml of the overlay to add a second transparent TextureView on top of the camera preview. Here is my original layout: It would be very grateful if someone can tell me how to make the new class work and tell me what to add to the layout.

snippet_camera2_basic.xml is here

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

            android:padding="20dp"
            android:src="@drawable/ic_action_info" />

    </FrameLayout>

</RelativeLayout>
