3 What Is Input? What is input?
Data or instructions entered into the memory of computer Input device is any hardware component used to enter data or instructions into a computer

4 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What is a keyboard? Input device that contains keys users press to enter data into a computer Includes typing area, numeric keypad, and function keys Can be cordless or built-in

5 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What is a mouse? Pointing device that fits under the palm of your hand mouse buttons mouse pad ball wheel button Mechanical mouse has rubber or metal ball on its underside

6 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What is an optical mouse? No moving mechanical parts inside Senses light to detect mouse’s movement More precise than mechanical mouse More expensive than a mechanical mouse

7 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What is a trackball? Stationary pointing device with a ball on its top or side To move pointer, rotate ball with thumb, fingers, or palm of hand

8 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What are a touchpad and a pointing stick? Touchpad is small, flat, rectangular pointing device sensitive to pressure and motion Pointing stick is pointing device shaped like pencil eraser positioned between keys on keyboard

9 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What are a joystick and a wheel? Joystick is vertical lever mounted on a base Wheel is steering-wheel-type input device Pedal simulates car brakes and accelerator

10 Other Pointing Devices
What is a control pad and a gamepad? Control pad on an audio player allows users to scroll through music, adjust volume, and customize settings Gamepad a pointing device that controls the movement and actions of players or objects in games

11 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What is a touch screen? Touch areas of screen with finger Often used with kiosks

12 Keyboard and Pointing Devices
What is a stylus and a digital pen? Used with graphics tablets, flat electronic boards Looks like a ballpoint pen, but uses pressure to write text and draw lines

13 Other Input Devices What is voice input?
Entering data by speaking into a microphone Voice recognition or speech recognition is the computer’s capability to distinguish spoken words

14 Other Input Devices What is audio input?
Entering sounds into a computer - speech, music, and sound effects MIDI - standard defining how digital musical devices represent sound electronically

15 PDAs, Tablet PCs, and Smart Phones
What is a Tablet PC? Mobile computer that includes handwriting recognition software Primary input device is a pressure-sensitive digital pen

16 Other Input Devices What is a digital camera?
Allows you to take digital pictures Images viewable immediately on camera Download to computer Post pictures to Web

17 Other Input Devices What is resolution? Sharpness and clarity of image
The higher the resolution, the better the image quality, but the more expensive the camera Pixel (picture element) is single point in electronic image Greater the number of pixels, the better the image quality

18 Other Input Devices What is video input?
Process of storing full-motion images on a computer’s storage medium Digital video (DV) camera records video as digital signals

19 Other Input Devices What is a PC video camera and a Web cam?
PC video camera—DV camera used to capture video and still images, and to make video telephone calls on Internet Also called PC camera Web cam—video camera that displays its output on a Web page

20 Other Input Devices What is video conferencing?
Two or more geographically separated people who use network on Internet to transmit audio and video data

21 Other Input Devices What is a scanner?
Light-sensing device that reads printed text and graphics Used for image processing, converting paper documents into electronic images

22 Other Input Devices What is an optical reader?
Device that uses light source to read characters, marks, and codes and then converts them into digital data Optical character recognition (OCR) reads characters in OCR font Optical mark recognition (OMR) reads hand-drawn pencil marks, such as small circles Bar code reader

23 Other Input Devices What is an RFID reader?
Reads information on the tag via radio waves Can be handheld devices or mounted in a stationary object

24 Other Input Devices What is a magnetic stripe card reader?
Reads the magnetic stripe on the back of a credit card Exposure to a magnetic field can erase the contents of a card’s magnetic stripe

25 Other Input Devices What is a magnetic-ink character recognition (MICR) reader? Can read text printed with magnetized ink Banking industry almost exclusively uses MICR for check processing

26 Other Input Devices What is a point of sale (POS) terminal?
Records purchases, processes credit or debit cards, and updates inventory

27 Other Input Devices What is an automated teller machine (ATM)?
Self-service banking machine that connects to a host computer through a network

28 Other Input Devices What is biometrics?
Authenticates person’s identity by verifying a personal characteristic Fingerprint scanner captures curves and indentations of fingerprint

29 Other Input Devices What are examples of biometric technology?
Voice verification system compares live speech with stored voice pattern Signature verification system recognizes shape of signature Iris recognition system reads patterns in blood vessels in back of eye Biometric data is sometimes stored on smart card, which stores personal data on microprocessor embedded in card

30 What is Output? What is output?
Data that has been processed into a useful form, called information Output device is any hardware component that can convey information to one or more people
