2018 iPad Pro with a webcam?

Hello, can anyone confirm if a webcam, perhaps with a USB type C connection such as a Logitech Brio, would work with a 2018 iPad Pro? I want this so that I can set up an iPad for telepresence, and therefore need a front-facing camera with a wider angle than what is built in to the iPad.

Thanks, Adam

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi

Thanks to those who have responded so quickly. Those are very definitive answers too.

I had heard of external cams working but perhaps through an app?

The Double Robots telepresence robot advertises an external camera feed:

Also some people have managed to use accessories such as endoscopes:

Looks like those use a wifi or bluetooth connection though.
