Which packages can be used for running the USB Camera in ROS Kinetic ?

Hi, I'm using ROS Kinetic on Ubuntu 16.04 in my PC.I want to connect the USB Camera to PC and to stream video/image capture from camera using the ROS on PC.I tried using package like usb_cam available on the ROS website but it shows me error of yaml calibration file not found.

And also when I searched on Google about the package. I found that it is compatible about ROS Indigo only.

So,can someone suggest me the way in which I can connect camera to the PC and stream video on PC using ROS ?

Camera Details (from lsusb command): Microdia PC USB Camera (SN9C201 + OV7660)

ROS - Kinetic

OS - Ubuntu 16.04

Any help in these problem would be highly appreciated.
