If it is a webcam yes i am pretty sure it will connect to a raspberry pi
Nolan,
As Stewart and Steve have mentioned, webcams on the RPi have been troublesome,
especially at higher resolutions. Just because a webcam uses USB and works on a PC
doesn't necessarily mean it will work on a RPi. A lot of work has been done recently on
USB issues, and the fixes can be tried by downloading updates to your OS kernel.
