We bought two Orange pi 5+ and four cameras (two Elp 2 megapixel and two u20 cam-9281) We are wondering if we install photon vison on both pi will we be able to read data on both of them with out them conflicting with eachother? And if they do conflict what can we can we do to fix it?
Conflict how?
If you’re worried about the same names, PV fixed this in one of their last updates iirc.
If you’re talking about running multiple cameras, a lot of teams do it and it’s very common. PV just has a dropdown to select which camera you’re viewing right now in the frontend, and both can be accessed through the code simultaneously. You just give the name to the PhotonCamera instance.
You can run multiple instances of photonvision on your robot network. Just make sure that every camera has a different name, across both Orange Pi. The code is the same as the person above me said, just pass the name you give the camera into the PhotonCamera instance. If you need an example on how this looks, I can get you one.

The only other thing to note is that you should assign unique host names (and IPs, if static) to each Pi so you can tell them apart
