You can't do it with flash alone. You will need some sort of other install on the user's computer. You can either build your own, or look into something like MDM's Zinc (or mProjector, or the many other 'swf2exe' type apps). Some of them support Mac, but not all.

Hi Flashcoders, I'm interested in presenting users with a web page that contains a flash object that can communicate to a device on a serial or USB connection (think camera or GPS unit). It needs to be able to detect active USB connections and do basic serial communications over USB or a serial port. There will also be devices that use a USB 'mass storage device profile' (look like a hard drive). So is this a practical use of Flash? Can I do it natively, or will I need to tie into another resource for communications (activeX control or some other binary)? The ideal solution would work on Explorer and Firefox, Windows and Mac. Thoughts? Ideas? Thanks!
