Help with color comparison (school project)

Question

Heya.
I need to make a basic program that can compare color averages (raspberry pi, v2 camera). That is my basic logic for detecting smoke (forest wildfire size, smoke detector won't help if wind pushes away).

I know basic C#, so I'm learning python pretty fast, but I don't know when I'll get the knowledge required for that code. Do I actually need to know how to write it, or can I just use libraries?
If it's simple, of course it'll be great if you explain it here :)

Thanks in advance.

python is high level language. so its not good as low level language for hardware management. if you must, you need to make google search for third-party module that can control those devices. mostly those modules is wroted in c++ or c
