skip permission to connect to usb Accessory

I don't want to take permission to connect to USB accessory as i want to connect to a specific USB accessory. Is it possible . As i have read on android.com as follows

Note: If your application uses an intent filter to discover accessories as they're connected, it >automatically receives permission if the user allows your application to handle the intent. If not, >you must request permission explicitly in your application before connecting to the accessory.

So is it possible to do so. Please help.

Thanks Gaurav

You can listen for the intent with this code:

UsbAccessory accessory = (UsbAccessory) intent.getParcelableExtra(UsbManager.EXTRA_ACCESSORY);

However there is information that must be included in the manifest:

This will allow you to filter devices based on a number of attributes.
