    Introduction
    A peripheral device provides input/output (I/O) functions for a computer and serves as an
    auxiliary computer device without computing-intensive functionality. Peripheral devices
    connect with a computer through several I/O interfaces, such as communications (COM),
    Universal Serial Bus (USB) and serial ports such as serial advanced technology
    attachment (SATA) ones.

    Peripheral devices include the following:

    • Mouse.

    • Keyboard.

    • Printer.

    • Monitor.

    • Webcam.
    Input Devices
    Input devices provide us a way to give input or instruct the computer to perform a
    function. It can be any information or data given to the processor and this processor gives
    the output by some output device. In a computer, the keyboard and mouse are input
    devices, CPU is the processor and monitor is the output device. Let us read ahead to
    know more about the various input devices in computers and their functions.

    Input devices include the following:

    • Mouse.

    • Keyboard.

    • Scanner.

    • Microphone.

    • Webcam.
    Output Devices
    The output device displays the result of the processing of raw data that is entered in the
    computer through an input device. There are a number of output devices that display
    output in different ways such as text, images, hard copies, and audio or video. They
    bridge the gap between digital data and human perception, letting users engage with
    computer-generated information. Understanding the many forms of output devices and
    their importance in computing is essential for making informed decisions while selecting
    the right devices for certain applications.

    Output devices include the following:

    • Monitor

    • Printer

    • Projector
    Storage Devices

    A storage device is any type of computing hardware that is used for storing, porting or
    extracting data les and objects. Storage devices can hold and store information both
    temporarily and permanently. They may be internal or external to a computer, server or
    computing device.

    Storage devices include the following:

    • RAM

    • CD

    • Floppy Disk

    Communication Devices
    Any hardware that can send and receive data, instructions, and information is referred to
    as a communications device. A modem is one kind of communication tool that joins a
    channel to a sending or receiving device, like a computer. Data is processed by
    computers as digital signals. Depending on the communications channel, data,
    instructions, and information can move along it in analogue or digital form. An electrical
    wave that is continuous makes up an analogue signal. Individual electrical pulses that
    represent bits and bytes are what make up a digital signal.

    Communication devices include the following:

    • Bluetooth Device

    • Smartphone

    • Wi
