/** Construct an instance of an Camera object type. To capture an image from
 *  the default camera, you can do this:
 *  <pre>
 *     var cameras = require("cameras");
 *     var camera = new cameras.Camera();
 *     camera.open();
 *     var image = camera.snapshot();
 *     camera.close();
 *  </pre>
 *  The image will be a binary object. This object can be sent to an output
 *  port displayed or otherwise further processed. To capture every image
 *  from the camera, you can do this:
 *  <pre>
 *     var cameras = require("cameras");
 *     var camera = new cameras.Camera();
 *     camera.on('image', function(image) { ... handle the image ... });
 *     camera.open();
 *     ...
 *     camera.close();
 *  </pre>
 *  An instance of this object type implements the following functions:
 *  <ul>
 *  <li> close(): Close the camera.
 *  <li> getViewSize(): Return the current view size for this camera as a JSON string, as in {"width":176, "height":144}.
 *  <li> on(event, handler): Specify an event handler for the camera.
 *  <li> open(): Open the camera.
 *  <li> setViewSize(size): Set the current view size for this camera. The argument can either be a JSON string or an object with a width and height field, as in for example {"width":176, "height":144}.
 *  <li> snapshot(): Return the last image recorded by the camera.
 *  <li> viewSizes(): Return an array of view sizes supported by this camera, each given as a JSON string of the form '{"width":176, "height":144}', for example.
 *  </ul>
 *  An instance of this object emits the following events:
 *  <ul>
 *  <li> "opened": The camera has been opened.
 *  <li> "image": A new image has been obtained.
 *  <li> "closed": The camera has been closed.
 *  </ul>
 *  @param name The camera name, or null to use the default camera.
