That's not really how the pixy is designed to be used from what I understand of it and from ye olden days of using the CMUCam, which it is based on. Think of the pixy as a self contained camera that does all your image processing for you and then outputs a serial data stream back to your controller (I think it can also do PWM and digital I/O).

I believe that the Full Metal Jackets used one this past season so maybe they can chime in or you can get in touch. I haven't used one and I'm merely guessing.
