Converting video from camera to OpenCV-workable object #1

Closed LordLadybug closed 3 years ago

LordLadybug commented 3 years ago

Creating a data pipeline connecting the video data pulled directly from the camera with PiCamera library to a OpenCV-readable format for isolating the red dot on the laser pointer; program unexpectedly hangs on creating the pipeline, possibly because the pipeline expects a write and a read process to connect to it at the same time (presumably using Python's multithreaded library)

Data pipeline is unnecessary here, went with alternative implementation, will close for now and reopen if deemed necessary.
