Updated: 08/31/2020 by An input device sends information to a computer system for processing, and an
output device reproduces or displays the results of that processing. Input devices only allow for input of data to a computer and output devices only receive the output of data from another device. Most devices are only input devices or output devices, as they can only accept data input from a user or output data generated by a computer. However, some devices can accept input and display output,
and they are referred to as I/O devices (input/output devices). For example, as shown in the top half of the image, a keyboard sends electrical signals, which are received as input. Those signals are then interpreted by the computer and displayed, or output, on the monitor as text or images. In the lower half of the image, the computer sends, or outputs, data to a printer. Then, that data is
printed onto a piece of paper, which is also considered output. An input device can send data to another device, but it cannot receive data from another device. Examples of input devices include the following. Tip For additional information and examples, see our input device page. An
output device can receive data from another device and generate output with that data, but it cannot send data to another device. Examples of output devices include the following. Tip For additional information and examples, see our output device page. An input/output device can
receive data from users, or another device (input), and send data to another device (output). Examples of input/output devices include the following. Tip For additional information and examples, see our input/output page. Is an electronic device which receives input and perform processing and produce output?Computer is an electronic device that receives input, stores or processes the input as per user instructions and provides output in desired format. Computer input is called data and the output obtained after processing it, based on user's instructions is called information.
What is an electronic device that accept data?a programmable electronic device designed to accept data, perform prescribed mathematical and logical operations at high speed, and display the results of these operations. Mainframes, desktop and laptop computers, tablets, and smartphones are some of the different types of computers.
Which device is an input device?The most common input devices are the keyboard, mouse, and touch screen. Portable keyboard, wireless mouse, and iPhone. There are hundreds of other input devices, like microphones to capture sound waves, scanners to capture image data, and virtual reality devices to capture our body movements.
What do computer receive as an input?Keyboard. Mouse. Microphone (audio input or voice input) Webcam.
