IF the CMUCam acually works, I think most teams will be able to do it, mainly because of the amount of stuff FIRST has already done for us, not to mention all the work others outside of FIRST have done on similar problems!
I heard today from someone that tested it that it is working much better. He had some settings wrong the first attempt, but it worked like a champ on the 2nd try. Time will tell what teams find with it, but I think they learned a lot last year and made things much better this year.
