Inside the 'camera' is a simple single chip device powered via the USB version 1.1 connection (should work fine for 1.1., 2.0 or 3.0). Skip to the 'We are lucky' for faster do-this. I have no vested interest in any of the following. This post is a give back to the community. I'm old, retired techie so I am trying to write simply on what is rather complicated.
