I'm planning to make a login system by USB, so if you put in a USB-drive and open a specific webpage, the website asks the USB-drive for the code (e.g. by a JavaScript file, a redirect or something like that).
The problem is, because of sandboxing, you can't load or redirect to local files. I don't know a solution for this problem. Can you guys help me? I don't need specific code, just an example or something in that way.
Maybe you can read up on USB-HID. Wikipedia:
The USB human interface device class (USB HID class) is a part of the USB specification for computer peripherals: it specifies a device class (a type of computer hardware) for human interface devices such as keyboards, mice, game controllers and alphanumeric display devices.
Here are some references:
node-hid - Access USB HID devices from node.jsDepthJS: 'Allows any web page to interact with the Microsoft Kinect using Javascript'.
