This week, I am helping to set up the webcam. Specifically, on calibrating the camera (estimating parameters about it). The camera model we are using is just a standard pinhole webcam. We are currently planning on calibrating the camera on our local machine and then using it on the Jetson. This is a reference to a page that we plan on using to help us in calibration: https://www.mathworks.com/help/vision/camera-calibration.html.
We are also setting up our initial testing environment right now. As of right now, we are going with cardboard boxes since they are not expensive and easy to setup. Depending on how much time is left, we may move to more secure ones.
