What information can we access from the camera?

FIRST games are complex and rely on design and intellectual capability much more than the average sport. - Chris is me [more]

Re: The Google Camera

I think you are a bit confused.

Google was announced as a sponsor of FIRST last year, and so the camera in the kit is a digital camera for taking pictures donated by Google for all teams to document their build/team progress.

The camera which is going to be on robots, is the return of 2005's CMU Cam system.

This is used for defining the green color, and going to be used for the purposes you are thinking of.

The CMU Cam was made by Carnegie-Mellon University (CMU) and is not an IFI part. I think your confusion is because IFI handles the ordering of the CMU cameras. (If I'm not mistaken)
