Switching between two USB camera Feeds

Quantum_Byte · February 7, 2016, 12:50pm

Hello all.
I have a question that research cannot solve. I want to switch between two camera feeds (USB) on my smart dashboard. I currently have the one camera server working, but from looking through WPILIB source code, it doesn’t look like I can change the USB camera interface name on the fly. Anyone find a solution to this? Thanks.

	private int curCam;
	private Image frame;
	private CameraServer server;
	private Controller contr;
	
	public CameraFeeds(Controller newContr)
	{
        // Get camera ids by supplying camera name ex 'cam0', found on roborio web interface
        camCenter = NIVision.IMAQdxOpenCamera(Config.CameraFeeds.camNameCenter, NIVision.IMAQdxCameraControlMode.CameraControlModeController);
        camRight = NIVision.IMAQdxOpenCamera(Config.CameraFeeds.camNameRight, NIVision.IMAQdxCameraControlMode.CameraControlModeController);
