You can have an indefinite number of cameras, the bandwidth is not an issue if you switch between camera feeds and/or do all image processing on board. I have heard of multiple teams using a raspberry pi for image recognition.

You would need one hell of an Ethernet switch to support 9001 cameras (perhaps an entire server rack)

No one ever said the cameras had to do anything.

Might as well make them a weight filler to get to the 120 lb limit :D :D :D

I'm surprised teams that have eyes on their robot (I'm looking at you 1986 and 931-from 2011) but cameras there are well if they have weight. I think that'd be cool, but that's just be.

Using cameras to get more weight? Do teams really add stuff to add to their weight? I feel the density of a camera would make it very inefficient. But hey, it sure would look cool.
