Is it possible to set a manual path to a file in the Javascript Controller?

Hey there! I'm fairly new to this amazing library, and I would like to ask a question;
I have an ID scanner for the software that i'm developing. So what happens is, I scan the ID and it auto-populates all the required fields in a Customer creation section, such as name, ID number and so on. For the profile picture part however, i'm using ng-flow to upload my images manually, but if i were to auto populate the image via the ID scanner, how would I do it? the ID scanner stores the ID's image in a local temp folder; "C:\temp\MYKAD-PHOTO.JPG". i've been trying to force this link to the flow obj, but it doesn't work; $scope.customer.obj.flow.files[0] = "C:\temp\MYKAD-PHOTO.JPG";
so yeap, any help here would be gladly appreciated! cheers!
