Re: USB camera with GRIP or Roborealm
Are you running GRIP on the roboRIO or the driver station?

If you're not running it on the roboRIO, your best bet is probably to either use an Axis camera and connect to it over the network, or (if you're using a vision coprocessor) to connect a USB camera directly to your vision coprocessor. The video protocol used by CameraServer is non-standard, and it eats up a bunch of CPU power on the roboRIO - it's probably better to directly connect the camera to whatever is processing the images.
