Examples: Mouse, Keyboard, Touchpad, Joystick, Touchscreen, Microphone, Digital Camera, Trackball, Light pen, Etc. These devices comes under four Categories of input.

  6. Categories of Input • Keyboard Entry Devices • Pointing Devices • Source Data Entry Devices • Multimedia Input Devices

  7. KEYBOARD ENTRY DEVICE This is the most important input device. This device is mainly used for typing, performing calculation on a computer or playing games. exit

  8. POINTING DEVICES • This type of input is mainly used to move a pointer (cursor) on a screen. Pointing devices may also be used to select, drag, or double-click things. exit

  9. Trackball Touchpad Light pen Touchscreen Joystick exit

  10. SOURCE DATA ENTRY DEVICES These devices are used to collect data at the source and send it directly to the computer, thus eliminating the possibility human errors in data entry. These devices include: Optical Character Reader OCR, Barcode Reader, Magnetic Ink Character Reader (MICR), Optical Mark Reader, Scanner. exit
