If you want to try talking to the device look at

 

https://github.com/JohnDMcMaster/usbrply

 

Would be interesting to see if you can replay a captured USB session.

 

I wonder how you would be able to see that something is happening. Is there an LED that provides feeback ?

 

In the worst case it does something (capture an image) but you will not notice. I guess it would return raw image data but there is no process to receive it.
