INTRODUCTION
 The functioning of a computer system is based on the

combined usage of both input and output devices.
 Using an input device we can give instructions to the

computer to perform an action and the device reverts to
our action through an output device.
DEFINITION’S
 Input Device Definition: A piece of equipment/hardware which
helps us enter data into a computer is called an input device.
For example keyboard, mouse, etc.
 Output Device Definition: A piece of equipment/hardware which

gives out the result of the entered input, once it is processed (i.e.
converts data from machine language to a human-understandable
language), is called an output device.
For example printer, monitor, etc.
LIST OF INPUT DEVICES
Given below is the list of the most common input devices along with
brief information about each of them.
 Keyboard:
 A simple device comprising keys and each key denotes either an alphabet,
number or number commands which can be given to a computer for various
actions to be performed.
 It has a modified version of typewriter keys.
 The keyboard is an essential input device and computer and laptops both
use keyboards to give commands to the computer.
 Mouse:
 It is also known as a pointing device.
 Using mouse we can directly click on the various icons

present on the system and open up various files and
programs.
 A mouse comprises 3 buttons on the top and one

trackball at the bottom which helps in selecting and
moving the mouse around, respectively.
 Joy Stick:
 It is a device which comprises a stick which is attached

at an angle to the base so that it can be moved and
controlled.
 Mostly used to control the movement in video games.
 Apart from a computer system, a joystick is also used in

the cockpit of an aeroplane, wheelchairs, cranes, trucks,
etc. to operate them well.
 Light Pen:
 It is a wand-like looking device which can directly be

moved over the device’s screen.
 It is light-sensitive.
 Used in conjunction with computer’s cathode ray tube.

 Microphone:
 Using a microphone, sound can be stored in a device in

its digital form.
 It converts sound into an electrical signal.
 To record or reproduce a sound created using a

microphone, it needs to be connected with an amplifier.
LIST OF OUTPUT DEVICES
The commonly used output devices have been listed below with a brief
summary of what their function is and how they can be used.
 Monitor:
 The device which displays all the icons, text, images, etc. over a
screen is called the Monitor.
 When we ask the computer to perform an action, the result of that

action is displayed on the monitor.
 Various types of monitors have also been developed over the years.
 Printer:
 A device which makes a copy of the pictorial or textual

content, usually over a paper is called a printer.
 For example, an author types the entire book on his/her

computer and later gets a print out of it, which is in the
form of paper and is later published.
 Multiple types of printers are also available in the

market, which can serve different purposes
 Speakers:
 A device through which we can listen to a sound as an

outcome of what we command a computer to do is called
a speaker.
 Speakers are attached with a computer system and also

are a hardware device which can be attached separately.
 With the advancement in technology, speakers are now

available which are wireless and can be connected using
Bluetooth or other applications.
 Projector:
 An optical device which presents an image or moving

images onto a projection screen is called a projector.
 Most commonly these projectors are used in auditoriums

and movie theatres for the display of the videos or
lighting.
 If a projector is connected to a computer, then the

image/video displayed on the screen is the same as the
one displayed on the computer screen.
 Headphones:
 They perform the same function as a speaker, the only

difference is the frequency of sound.
 Using speakers, the sound can be heard over a larger area

and using headphones, the sound is only audible to the
person using them.
 Also known as earphones or headset.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN INPUT AND OUTPUT DEVICE
 There are many input devices such as a keyboard,

mouse, webcam, microphone and more, which send
information to a computer system for processing.
 There are also many output devices, like

Monitor, printer and more, displays the result of
processing generated by input devices. Input devices
only work for giving input of data to the system, and
output devices accept the output after processing of data
from other devices.

the information to the users.
CONCLUSION
 Without Input and Output devices, computers probably

would be useless. As a monitor is needed and that is an
output device, also a keyboard is probably one of the
most needed devices and that is a input so in
conclusion, I think computers wouldn't be what they are
today if input and output devices never existed.
