Badge Reader

[Guest]

Hi,
Can any one suggest how can I read Badge information into my web application?
I am very new into this. I am expecting entire solution.
My requirement is, I have a system which will connect to Badge reader when
any one swipe the badge, Badge reader has to read the data and I needs to
store in a DB. Later my web application gets the data from DB.
Hope there could be some API which communicates to Badge reader.

Please help me in this issue

Thanks in advance.

Hello Umeshnath,

You need to ask the Badge hardware vendor about the way to communicate with
their devices

Most likely there are special ActiveX controls. You will need to use the
ActiveX to collect the data on client side and pass them on to the server.
You will need some javascripting for that.
