I want is for the still images to run independently through the display code, then when the sensor is triggered the live camera feed will overlap the still images at various transparency based on the sensor reading.
Right now the still images run in the background but are not visible until the sensor range is tripped. The camera feed performs as desired until you are out of range then the camera feed never turns off. Also the camera feed flickers constantly. I am using a basic logitech webcam.
I appreciate any help you can provide.
Cheers,
Allison
