Extreme temporal and spatial precision were less important than getting something reasonable with a minimal budget. When conscientiously managed, USB webcams controlled via OpenCV can perform surprisingly well at this task.

Extreme precision was less important than getting something reasonable with a minimal budget. When conscientiously managed, USB webcams controlled via OpenCV can perform surprisingly well at this task. I have spun this functionality off into its own package to create a clear separation of concerns between data capture and data processing, while hopefully creating a simpler package that others might find useful. If MultiWebCam (MWC) is close to what you need but not quite, please feel free to raise an issue and I'll see if I can incorporate your use case. These are the core functions that are currently implemented:
