getting input from local devices

Hi list,

I am just thinking about what possibilities exist to get input data from a device that is connected locally to the client (e.g. a security card reader or a barcode scanner) into WO. An app deployed as Java Client could easily interact with local devices but what if a have a "normal" WO app? AFAIK JavaScript cannot access resources other than the webbrowser itself and I didn't find any helpful information on that matter.
Did anyone solve that problem or has any insight on how it could be done? I can't imagine that this is a totally uncommon situation.
