We've written a MVC web application for a client that they're typically interacting with from Windows 10 PCs. They've now asked us for a solution whereby the users can attach a USB device that captures physical signatures, and have that captured signature uploaded via a web page in the app.

While this sounds like a general permissions/privacy no no, I'm hopeful maybe some sort of solution exists out there...?

Thanks James

  • A website will never have direct access to the device. So the user needs to upload that signature or has to install a piece of software that handles the communication between their computer and your server. – VDWWD Nov 20 '19 at 13:20

there is a WebUSB API for chrome you could used. it's javascript api, you could communicate using ajax for the backend.
