For some reason this is a very frequently asked question so do basic research and google before you ask. Basically you can't do this, asp.net code runs on the server and can't access client hardware. You'll need to use a scanner that comes with software that makes it usable via a browser.

Hey,

Yes, this is possible! I think that it's the best way to create a new folder (for example security) and work with multiple classes. One class for the driver/connection layer, one class that can translate this to an exisiting user (that can be founded in for example a database).

I guess that the eventually output of it will give some string with numbers and letters. you can connect this UID to a user. Since you can't find any driver (also no dll's?) I think that it's the best solution to connect to the comport with something like putty. Then you can find out what you can do with it and create your own driver for it.
