Can you add a detailed explanation for the transformation matrix of the camera?

I've tried to update the wiki to explain this better. Of the two programmers that worked heavily on this project, I am not the math guy. @rmheuer Could probably explain it better.

Thanks for updating the wiki. Could you also add some examples as the PhotonVision people did? It would make things a lot easier for most of the people. Something like:

Cam mounted facing forward, half a meter forward of center, half a meter up from center. -> [example transformation matrix]

I've updated the docs to match your suggestion. It's been a little while since we've updated this project as we put it on pause for the competitive season so the directions may be incorrect. In the future, we plan on experimenting with a couple of features to make it run faster, and if that works, you could expect to see a configuration much more like the photonvision one.

Thanks for the update! I'd be happy to contribute in the future.
