  • compile uvcdynctrl and test
  • find a way to rotate camera
  • Find best way to see/modify camera settings via command line on linux.  Play with brightness/exposure/etc. to get the best isolation of targets in imagebefore GRIP gets ahold of the stream.  Then adjust GRIP file to make the best use of that.
