Getting started

Difficulty
Intermediate
Hardware it needs, as the project states it
Needs libjpeg-turbo 3.0 or newer installed on the system for both roles. The server runs on the robot or device the cameras are plugged into; the client runs on a workstation or robot host. Camera access over USB needs a one-time permission setup.

Robots that can run it

No robot on Robotheca is linked to it yet. Links come from a robot's robot.yaml, from its dependency files read as text, or from Robotheca's editors.

Robotheca lists software as a reference: nothing is hosted or run here, and every fact links to where it was read.
