Hello Fellow Devs,  
I recently came across a related article while trying to figure out QR scanning for my desktop app. My code is as it is on the quoted article below;  
[Article on adding to Camera live stream to your HTML page](https://www.kirupa.com/html5/accessing_your_webcam_in_html5.htm)

My Question: is there a way to scan a QR based on this camera live feed and then get it to do stuff like say, login or submit a form, once QR reading is completed?

My Objective: I want to create a QR code-based login system for my ERP Desktop software, where employees scan their IDs to login to their user profiles.

Thanks in Advance!
