Potentially switch camera streams to CameraServer #6

Open ThadHouse opened 7 years ago

ThadHouse commented 7 years ago

CameraServer is going to support both Usb Camera Streams and Http Camera Streams on all platforms, so it seems like a great use case to use it here. Currently Usb cameras are not supported on Windows yet, but Http streams will in the next day or 2. They just return OpenCv images. which I know are fairly easy to convert to bitmaps, so it shouldn't be too hard to implement. We could look into doing this for the http streams now, and then convert the usb streams when that gets added.

Both of the camera types use the same core, but I'm all for exploring switching stuff over once CameraServer has USB cameras on Windows.
