    ACTIVITY 1

    Research for the different Computer: Input and Output Devices and its functions
    (uses).
    Attached photo of each.

    COMPUTER INPUT DEVICES:

    Keyboard
    Keyboard is the most common and very popular input device which helps to input data to the
    computer. The layout of the keyboard is like that of traditional typewriter, although there are
    some additional keys provided for performing additional functions.
    Mouse
    Mouse is the most popular pointing device. It is a very famous cursor-control device having a small
    palm size box with a round ball at its base, which senses the movement of the mouse and sends
    corresponding signals to the CPU when the mouse buttons are pressed.
    Generally, it has two buttons called the left and the right button and a wheel is present between the
    buttons.

    Joystick
    Joystick is also a pointing device, which is used to move the cursor position on a monitor
    screen. It is a stick having a spherical ball at its both lower and upper ends. The lower
    spherical ball moves in a socket. The joystick can be moved in all four directions.
    The function of the joystick is similar to that of a mouse. It is mainly used in Computer Aided
    Designing (CAD) and playing computer games.
    Microphone
    Microphone is an input device to input sound that is then stored in a digital form.
    The microphone is used for various applications such as adding sound to a multimedia
    presentation or for mixing music.

    Light Pen
    Light pen is a pointing device similar to a pen. It is used to select a displayed menu item or
    draw pictures on the monitor screen. It consists of a photocell and an optical system placed in
    a small tube.
    When the tip of a light pen is moved over the monitor screen and the pen button is pressed, its
    photocell sensing element detects the screen location and sends the corresponding signal to
    the CPU.
    Scanner
    Scanner is an input device, which works more like a photocopy machine. It is used when
    some information is available on paper and it is to be transferred to the hard disk of the
    computer for further manipulation.
    Scanner captures images from the source which are then converted into a digital form that can
    be stored on the disk. These images can be edited before they are printed.
    COMPUTER OUTPUT DEVICES:

    Monitor
    A monitor displays data from a computer onto a screen so the user can interact with the data
    via a digital interface

    Printer
    A printer is to create a copy of whatever is sent from the computer to the printer. Printers take
    electronic data sent from a computer and generate a hard copy.
    Headphones
    Headphones output audio from a computer through two individual headphones for a single
    listener. Also known as earphones, headphones allow you to listen to audio without disrupting
    other people in the vicinity.

    Computer Speaker
    Computer speakers are hardware devices that transform the signal from the computer's sound
    card into audio. Speakers create sound using internal amplifiers that vibrate at different
    frequencies according to data from the computer. This produces sound.
    Projector
    This type of output device "projects" computer images or video onto a wall or screen.
