Hardware is physical equipment of computer system.

Hardware can be divided into two categories: Input Device and Output Device.

Input device is computer device that is used to input data


into computersystem. Input device can be divided into
some categories:
first Text input devices Such as keyboard,
a device to input text and characters by depressing buttons
(referred to as keys), similar to a typewriter.
The most common English-language key layout is the QWERTY
layout.
Below is a picture of a keyboard using QWERTYlayout
second Pointing Device The most common pointing device is mouse.
In computing, a mouse is a pointing device that functions
by detecting two dimensional motion
relative to its supporting surface.
Physically, a mouse consists of an object
held under one of the user's hands, with one or more buttons,
other elements, such as "wheels", or extra buttons.

Other alternative of pointing device is trackball,


a pointing device consisting of an exposed protruding ball
housed in a socket that detects rotation about two axes.
The trackball was invented by
Tom Cranston and Fred Longstaff
as part of the Royal Canadian Navy‘s DATAR system
in 1952,
eleven years before the mouse was invented.
Below is a picture of a trackball.
3.Gaming devices One example of gaming device is
a joystick.
A joystick is a general control device
that consists of a handheld stick that pivots around
one end,
to detect angles in two or three dimensions.
4 Image, Video input devices
There are two common input devices in this type.
First is Image scanner, a device that provides input by analyzing images,
printed text, handwriting, or an object.
Below is a picture of image scanner.
Second type is a webcam. Webcams are video capturing devices
connected to computers or computer networks, often using USB
or, if they connect to networks, ethernet or Wi-Fi.
They are well-known for their low manufacturing costs and flexible
applications.
Below is a picture of a webcam.
5. Audio input devices One example of audio input device is a microphone.
Microphone sometimes referred to as a mic or mike,
is an acoustic-to-electric transducer or sensor
that converts sound into an electrical signal.
Microphones are used in many applications such as
telephones, tape recorders, hearing aids, motion picture production,
live and recorded audio engineering,
in radio and television broadcasting
and in computers for recording voice, Voice over Internet Protocol,
and for non-acoustic purposes such as ultrasonic checking.
Output Device
1. Image, Video Output Devices First example is a printer.
In computing, a printer is a peripheral which produces a hard
copy permanent human readable text and or graphics
of documents stored in electronic form,
usually on physical print media such as paper or transparencies.
Many printers are primarily used as local peripherals,
and are attached by a printer cable or
in most newer printers a USB cable to a computer which serves
as a document source.
2. Audio Output Devices
Speakers. Computer speakers, or multimedia speakers, are external speakers,
commonly equipped with a low-power internal amplifier.
Headsets. Headphones are a pair of small loudspeakers,
or less commonly a single speaker, with a way of holding them close to a user's
ears
and a means of connecting them to a signal source such as an audio amplifier,
radio or CD player.
let us continue to our second presentasion computer What is
a Computer
The first use of the word "computer" was
recorded in 1613, referring to a person who
carried out calculations, or computations,
and the word continued with the same
meaning until the middle of the 20th
century.

What is the Computer


A computer is a general purpose device that can be
programmed to carry out a finite set of arithmetic or
logical operations. Since a sequence of operations can
be readily changed, the computer can solve more than
one kind of problem.
What is the Computer
Also we can say …..
An electronic device that stores, retrieves, and processes data,
and
can be programmed with instructions. A computer is composed of
hardware and software, and can exist in a variety of sizes and
configurations.
Types of Computers
Mini and Mainframe Computers
Very powerful, used by large organisations
such an banks to control the entire business
operation. Very expensive!

Personal Computers
Cheap and easy to use. Often used as
stand-alone computers or in a network.
May be connected to large mainframe
computers within big companies.
