We can make a Chrome extension that accesses USB. This could be easier than running a server. See https://developer.chrome.com/apps/app_usb

If we take this route, everything inside the t100_lib [https://github.com/PaxInstruments/t100-software/tree/master/commandline/t100_lib] library needs to be reimplemented in javascript.

Having an embedded web server gives you code re-usability, remote connection support and browser independence.

In the long run re-writing the library may pay-off but main problem for me is creating a browser specific solution.
