Not that the question has anything to do with Qt... libusb (http://www.libusb.org/) is one common option on Linux

Hi

There are many threads telling that libusb is the option for accessing USB Devices on Linux. However, I am unable to find proper examples on how to do that.

Can you help me further on how to use libusb...

Libusb has API documentation (http://libusb.sourceforge.net/api-1.0/) and ships with basic examples (http://www.libusb.org/browser/libusb/examples). You need to have reasonable understanding of USB.
