Problem

Is there a way to use HTML 5 to access local system hardware details? I'm looking specifically for attributes about CPU, RAM, Disk space, Video card information, Browsers available and plug-ins (with verson information). Ultimately, I am trying to determine if I can build a tool to check a machine for hardware requirements to run software but do so without needing to actually install anything on the machine. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!
