This camera would be useful for most tasks ie navigation, collision avoidance

the second camera would be on a pan / tilt gimble.
This would be used for finer details that the omni camera couldn't pick up.
a use for this would be the vision target this year, use this camera to line up the bot exactly
Now, that is a good idea, but think of the rules on motors, if teh servos have to be controlled by the crio and the PC does imaging, they would have to communicate really well then... The cRio sends a request to process image and the position of the servo to the pc, the pc does its job, tells crio what do do. Eh, its possible

Edit:
Major flaw, what class controls the ethernet? I tried looking through the Axis Camera class (the most obvious way to find it) I could not find it...
