Well, if you want it to talk to iPhoto then you should use the Image
Capture API: <http://developer.apple.com/sdk/#ImageCapture>
It relies on user space drivers that live here:
/System/Library/Image Capture/Devices/
When someone plugs in a camera matching the one you describe in an
Info.plist, your app is launched and runs in the background.
Having said that, I'm not sure how much sense it makes for a webcam to
want to talk to iPhoto... (however I haven't upgraded for a while...)
