Evaluate possible vision hardware for this season #21

Compare options and come up with what we should order.

I see the following avenues for computer vision:

  1. LimeLight, for detection of port targets
    • This may also support control panel analysis depending on whether we can turn off the green light, and what kind of custom pipelines it'll accept from GRIP
  2. Microsoft Lifecam
    • With green ringlight, for detection of port targets (we already have this hardware in house)
    • With white ringlight, for control panel analysis such as this one
  3. "Knockoff BlackFly" plus one of the aforementioned ring lights
  4. One of the above cameras, with an RGB ring light
    • May require control via an Arduino

I've asked Chris to order all the linked parts, for later evaluation.
