Project Update 2!
After figuring out the basics, I got a program of simple blinking lights to work. Amazingly enough, I was able to write the code myself and have a simple understanding of how it works. On the Arduino Uno, I plugged in LEDs in slots 12 and 13 after running ground to the breadboard. You have to start somewhere right?! So next I will try to understand exactly what code I will need to write in order rig up the small camera to it. Here's an example of the code I'm writing:

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(12, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
  digitalWrite(13, HIGH);  // set the LED on
  delay(1500);            // wait betweeen blinks
  digitalWrite(12, HIGH);
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(13, LOW);  // Turn LED off
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(12, LOW);
  delay(1500);
}
