I don't believe you will find a way to access remote hardware using PHP.

If you do, please let me know.... maybe I can win a MacBook Air also!

Guess you can do it in java or flash. Or you write you own lib and access it via exec. Could be worth trying it.

I dont think that can be done using php. As sDjh has already mentioned, try that in java/flash or in .NET !
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
