Linux Cam!

So.....

I've spent the last 48 hours building a FIRST rule abiding, COTS compatible onboard linux box.





I'm thinking of hooking up a logitech cam and trying to write/find drivers for it, and then write some sort of app to take images and try to sort out ball color.

So what I'm looking for is:
Ideas for platform development (flavor of linux, as well as language)
Ideas for camera drivers
Ideas for code development

I know this is a huge task.... but I figured I'd start here for ideas.

Thanks everyone!
Jacob
