What makes an input device useful?
an input device needs an application that create value of the data from the input device
the input device is a way to get information in to the application that can use this information and makes the input device useful
Is an easy and faster way of collecting data
Is a tool that can be used for connectivity and integration of data from different sources
Examples of useful input devices
GPS RFID Voice recognition Handwriting recognition Medical devices
GPSGlobal Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based global navigation satellite system that provides location and time information in all weather and at all times.
A GPS can be used for Determine ambulance, fire truck or police car nearest
to an emergency Locate lost people that has a cellular phone with gps
included Locate stolen vehicles or boats Keep track of trucks, public transportation and other
vehicles to use them in a more environmental way And, of course, find the nearest and fastest way to
your destination

RFID can be used for Identify goods in a truck without opening it Human identification by attaching a RFID tag at a badge Keep track of products in their life cycle Count and identify cattle that are out free on the pasture
Voice RecognitionVoice recognition or Speech recognitionconverts spoken words to text.
Voice Recognition can be used for Help people with physical disabilities that has problem
using a standard keyboard or mouse effectively Help students who have learning disabilities that interfere
with their ability to spell and write Make interaction with telephone systems more effective
and faster (but it can be annoying if it doesn’t work properly…)
On-Line Handwriting Recognition
Handwriting recognition is the ability of acomputer to receive and interpretintelligible handwritten input
Handwriting Recognition can be used for Sign of deliveries on-line on a handheld device instead of
using paper Verify a signature directly on-line Input text into a computer or a handheld device using
handwriting which can be more efficient Doctors using a tablet computer directly entering
handwritten text into the system
Medical DevicesA medical device is a product which isused for medical purposes
Medical Devices can be used for Measuring the health status of a sick person Collect different kind of information to make a fast analysis Measure heart or blood pressure Determine dose of medication And much much more…..
