There is some information on this in the TWAIN FAQ [http://twain.org/faq.htm].
Look for these sections:
“Is it possible from a TWAIN application to know if a scanner is a flatbed scanner or not?”
“How can a TWAIN Application know whether a Data Source is a Scanner or a Digital Camera?”
There may not be a way to distinguish a digital camera from a webcam.
