Re: [flexcoders] What I wish Flex/Flash Player could do...

Someone blogged about using a webcam as a barcode reader in Flash 8 using the new imaging ActionScript.  Not sure about the rest.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Rick Bullotta To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com ; flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2005 6:19 AM Subject: RE: [flexcoders] What I wish Flex/Flash Player could do... Here's another one for Ethan then... :)   The Flash Player (along with Flex and AS) should have an input extensibility model that supports input focus management and input from other mechanisms/devices such as:   - Barcode readers - RFID readers - Card readers - Others...   This would open up a whole new class of applications for Flex/Flash.   - Rick Bullotta   SAP Labs, LLC From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com on behalf of JesterXL Sent: Mon 8/15/2005 9:28 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] What I wish Flex/Flash Player could do... I forwarded your request to the Central Dev group for Ethan Malasky to hopefully pick up.  Since Central is hopefully the future of Flash, and ultimately Flex on the desktop, things like this are perfect. It just so happens SQL on the client was requested by multiple people already there, so your request from a different demographic WITH the keywords of "occasionally connected" just adds mad credence. -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com YAHOO!
