<p>Allows for conversion from <tt>"RGB"</tt> to a destination colorspace of <tt>"HSV"</tt> or <tt>"YUV"</tt>. The source and destination surfaces must be the same size and pixel depth. This is useful for computer vision on devices with limited processing power.

<p>Loads a v4l2 camera. The device is typically something like "/dev/video0". Default width and height are 640 by 480. Format is the desired colorspace of the output. This is useful for computer vision purposes. The default is <tt>RGB</tt>. The following are supported: </p>
<ul>
<li> RGB - Red, Green, Blue </li>
<li> YUV - Luma, Blue Chrominance, Red Chrominance </li>
<li> HSV - Hue, Saturation, Value </li>

<i>gets current values of user controls</i><br>
<tt>Camera.get_controls(): return (hflip = bool, vflip = bool, brightness)</tt><br>
<p>If the camera supports it, get_controls will return the current settings for horizontal and vertical image flip as bools and brightness as an int. If unsupported, it will return the default values of (0, 0, 0). Note that the return values here may be different than those returned by set_controls, though these are more likely to be correct. </p>

<i>changes camera settings if supported by the camera</i><br>
<tt>Camera.set_controls(hflip = bool, vflip = bool, brightness): return (hflip = bool, vflip = bool, brightness)</tt><br>
<p>Allows you to change camera settings if the camera supports it. The return values will be the input values if the camera claims it succeeded or the values previously in use if not. Each argument is optional, and the desired one can be chosen by supplying the keyword, like hflip. Note that the actual settings being used by the camera may not be the same as those returned by set_controls. </p>

<p>If an image is ready to get, it returns true. Otherwise it returns false. Note that some webcams will always return False and will only queue a frame when called with a blocking function like get_image(). This is useful to separate the framerate of the game from that of the camera without having to use threading. </p>

<tt>Camera.get_image(Surface = None): return Surface</tt><br>
<p>Pulls an image off of the buffer as an <tt>RGB</tt> Surface. It can optionally reuse an existing Surface to save time. The bit depth of the surface is either 24bits or the same as the optionally supplied Surface. </p>
