The IMAQdx drivers support many camera types, including USB webcams. They are available here http://www.ni.com/download/ni-vision-acquisition-software-2013.08/4147/en/

Install the drivers and additional icons will show up in the Vision and Motion palette. It may also be helpful to look at some of the examples or at team code such as from 2468. They used the laptop camera this year as a firing enable mechanism.

At least that is one thread that contains it. There may be another one too.
