How can JavaScript or Java potentially be used to access hardware information compared to PHP?

JavaScript and Java can potentially access hardware information through the use of browser APIs or third-party libraries that provide access to system resources. This can include information such as CPU usage, memory usage, battery status, and more. In comparison, PHP is a server-side language and does not have direct access to client-side hardware information. However, PHP can communicate with JavaScript on the client-side to retrieve and display hardware information to users. 

<?php
// PHP code to communicate with JavaScript to access hardware information
echo '<script>';
echo 'var cpuUsage = getCPUUsage();';
echo 'var memoryUsage = getMemoryUsage();';
echo 'console.log("CPU Usage: " + cpuUsage);';
echo 'console.log("Memory Usage: " + memoryUsage);';
echo '</script>';
?>
