Hello, I’m from team 8882 and I wanted to ask for some help.
Our Limelight 2+ is having some problems, it turns on normally, but it doesn’t want to be recognized inside the balenaEtcher to update its firmware, we’ve already changed the computer and cable and saw that this is not a problem. So I wanted to switch to a Logitech webcam, but I have no idea how to use it, and I came to ask for help.
Do you want to use a Logitech cam with vision processing or just in for driver vision?
If you just want it in general, you plug it in to the usb port on the RIO.
If you want to use vision processing, you have to use a RaspberryPI running photonvision (that’s what we do).
Unless there is some way to use it with the LimeLight that someone in the replies below me is going to explain (unlikely?).
This isn’t true. It’s certainly one option, but far from the only one. There are many coprocessor options other than the RaspberryPI, and youre free to use opencv natively without using something like photonvision. Also, you’re free to do vision processing natively on the rio (either within your robot code or as a separate process). It’s likely quite underpowered for what most teams would want to do, but it’s possible.
If you are relatively confident that there is a fatal hardware issue on the limelight, contact limelight support to get it fixed or replaced. That will hopefully be faster than setting up a new system.
yes, i just want use the logitech to driver vision, i plug the USB on the RIO, but what i need to do on code to stream de video on the shuffleboard
Add CameraServer.startAutomaticCapture(); to your robotInit.
