Are there any ways to integrate fingerprint biometrics on HTML5 or Javascript?

I have this new project that requires fingerprint bio metrics.

A Regular fingerprint scanner device will be used but I have less idea on how to use web technologies(HTML,JS,etc...) with this device, I already know that one way to do this is through Java. I was wondering if it is possible that this could be done using basic web technologies like Javascript, HTML5 or even PHP.

All I need to do is to save the image of the scanned fingerprint to a specific file but I am not sure if HTML5 or Javascript alone can do this.

I need to know if this is really possible and how. Any solutions will do.

Thanks
