Yes, right.
However this does not work for the complex case such as: I want a camcorder device and control the recording such as record, stop, pause...etc.

You're leaving out some details here, encapsulated by:
    // send the image to server side script
In your case you have to:
1. Extract the encapsulated data
2. Create an HTML form
3. Submit the data
(Steps two and three could be done using a hypothetical, not yet  
generally-implemented version of XHR)
In the <input>/web forms based case, you have to
1. Submit the form
