Hi Daniel, A number of Flash wrappers (i.e. programs to turn Flash movies into .exe files) can handle extensions (.dlls) written in native code. So you could write or buy extensions to interface with almost anything at a system level - without additional dialogs etc.
Northcode's SWFStudio does it: http://www.northcode.com/swfstudio.php SWHX also does it: http://www.haxe.org/com/libs/swhx And I know Zinc (much as I despise it's instability and bugginess) does it: http://www.multidmedia.com/software/zinc/ HTH, Ian On Thu, Aug 21, 2008 at 7:18 AM, Daniel Boey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi people, > > I've got a project that requires hardware communication between a Flash > kiosk-projector and a few hardwares (eg: scanner, biometric fingerprint > reader, smart card reader). > What is required is that all this are to be operated seamlessly without any > other application dialogs popping up over the Flash interface. > After days and weeks of scouring the net, I wasn't able to even stumble upon > any clue on this. > > Is this even possible at all?
