I believe there were teams who did break down the images from the camera this year to send back to their dashboard. It was pretty awesome. This year for bacon though we had LEDs on a PVC pipe (so that the operator could see them without having to look away) and they signaled when 1) the camera could see any particle 2) when the particle was centered 3) when our rpm on the shooter was at the appropriate speed to fire (the camera gave us an estimated distance to the target using the size of the particle, and we had an equation for distance to rpms). It worked fairly well, and was a fairly simple solution to impliment.
