Is there any API to fetch both rear and front camera view at the same time?

Question

I have a requirement to show both rear and front camera in a single display. Is it possible to show both simultaneously. Is there any api to fetch both views at the same time?

Same as a single camera... Just double.

Two SurfaceHolders, and two Camera instances.

*Sounds* plausible, but if you actually try it, the second open(int) will throw an exception. – Jon Shemitz Jul 11 '12 at 21:55
