How to fill a web form input field in PC using an Android application in which device is connected via USB/Wi-fi?

What I'm thinking..

I want to create a Bar code/QR code Scanner android application that scans the code using device's camera and fill a web form input field of a PC connected(via USB or Wi-fi) to it.

(Actually the vendor is asking more money for that small scanner gun! So I wish to replace their scanner gun with my Android application.)

What I knew..

Even though I'm a newbie in android application development, I knew how to build an application that reads the text from a barcode/qrcode. And also I had the full control over the web page( it's a web app developed in Laravel 5.4 by me).

(I know there is an alternative way by implementing an API, but the system is isolated from internet)

PC is Windows 8/10, Android application version will be >= 6.0

What I found?

There are similar systems in which the mobile application is connected with Windows using Wi-fi and they needs the installation of a software on PC too. This one put the code into an excel sheet

So can you help me to find the skelton of,

  1. How to use an android application to fill out the web form input in PC as same as bar code scanner do? And how it works?
