API for controlling GoPro Hero 3 Camera from Node.js.
The initial mission here is to take, retrieve, and remove timelapse photos with/from the camera.
As there is no public API, this work is based on these reverse engineering efforts:

Issues
- The status bytes at least as given by my Hero3 White are totally unknown. The status() method assumes that byte 15 is ready status.
Usage
var Camera = require('gopro').Camera
var cam = new Camera('10.5.5.9', 'camera password')
cam.startCapture()
.then(function() {
cam.stopCapture()
})
