Re: Using cameras

To get the images from the camera to your driver station you'll need to code it in. For C++ and I believe Java you'll want to look into the PCVideoServer class in the WPI Library. I don't know how you'd do it for LabView though.

Also, be prepared for some lag. When our team did used it two years ago we had about 1-2 seconds of lag. It might be better this year but I wouldn't expect it to be lag-free.
