You need to use mjpg-streamer to make the usb cam act as a webcam. I'm on mobile, so I don't have a link, but there is a build for roborio.

Great Hint..
Can any body provide the link for instructions...on how to do roborio mjpg-streamer
As a temporary solution we has a RASP pi.. that has MJPG-STREAMER serving the camera... but feel PI might not be robust for hits and vibration...?
We can provide instructions for PI Cam Server if need.

I wouldn't worry about the Pi vs. vibration, any more than the Roborio itself. Many teams, including ours, use it to run cameras.

Here's the link. You could also run GRIP on the Pi if you have a Pi 2.
