I'd love to see a lot more OpenCV in FRC so hopefully next season we have a few more options for using the NetworkTables.
there are two threads on here about python netwlrt tables. One is an opencv thread started by myself with a link to my teams github which contains our implementation of the network tables according to FIRST'S protocol. the second thread has the link to just the network tables class.
