INPUT & OUTPUT DEVICES


Input Device:

In computing, an input device is a piece of equipment used to provide data and control signals to an
information processing system, such as a computer or information appliance

Output Devices:

An output device is a hardware component that translates processed data into a form that can be
understood by humans or used by other devices. In this context, output is the final result that users can
see, hear, or physically interact with.
