Caveats

This is basically totally untested outside of my own setup. Use with caution; file bug reports liberally.

On Android, you will have to chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/*/* in order for this library to work. You can do this either in a uevent boot-time script or by using su on a rooted device. On an unrooted device, UsbDevice can provide a USB device handle, but you will have to hack this library to open a camera from a UsbDevice.
