Research direction
Start by locating the ofVideoDevice definition and the mobile video-device implementations in openFrameworks. Trace how device metadata is gathered on mobile platforms, then determine how orientation and front/back-facing values should be exposed and populated. Done means both fields are available through ofVideoDevice and report the requested mobile-camera metadata.
