如何确定设备是否为桌面浏览器？

Question

I am creating a responsive design for a website. We have a rollover navigation menu for non-touch desktop browsers and an off canvas menu design for touch mobile and touch tablets. It is an ASP.NET MVC4 project. How can I determine in C#, Javascript, or CSS3 if a user is browsing the site with a desktop browser? I would prefer to use some kind of CSS3 media query if it is possible.

From a beautiful site: http://www.abeautifulsite.net/blog/2011/11/detecting-mobile-devices-with-javascript/

 var isMobile = {
        Android: function() {
            return navigator.userAgent.match(/Android/i);
        },
        BlackBerry: function() {
            return navigator.userAgent.match(/BlackBerry/i);
        },
        iOS: function() {
            return navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone|iPad|iPod/i);
        },
        Opera: function() {
            return navigator.userAgent.match(/Opera Mini/i);
        },
        Windows: function() {
            return navigator.userAgent.match(/IEMobile/i);
        },
        any: function() {
            return (isMobile.Android() || isMobile.BlackBerry() || isMobile.iOS() || isMobile.Opera() || isMobile.Windows());
        }
    };

    if(isMobile.any()){
        // Mobile!
    } else {
        // It is desktop
    }

Else use libraries like device.js http://matthewhudson.me/projects/device.js/
