SFX Vision plugin

Hi,
I'm a new mentor to First on a team that has zero programming experience carried over from last year. We have a goal to do vision programming and I've been trying to research how to do accomplish it. My research tells me that we want to process the images on the driver station, I think with an SFX Dashboard plugin passing data back to the robot with network tables.

We're using java, eclipse, robotbuilder with a command based robot. We have the robot driving and video streaming to the driver station.

First off, is that the correct architecture for this? If not, what?

If I am on the right path, how do I create an SFX plugin? I've been trying to follow the instruction here but it references jar files sfxlib.jar and sfxmeta.jar which are supposed to generate automatically but do not exist on my system.

I've also read through lots of shared source code of people extending WPICameraExtension but I'm unable to find that class.

I'm a programmer by trade for the past 20 years including 12 years of java programming, so am familiar with programming, but can't crack this nut. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
