In computing, the USB human interface device class (USB HID class) is a part of the USB specification for computer peripherals: it specifies a device class (a type of computer hardware) for human interface devices such as keyboards, mice, touchscreen, game controllers and alphanumeric display devices.
A human interface device (HID) is a type of computer device usually used by humans that takes input from or provides output to humans. The term "HID" most commonly refers to the USB HID specification. The term was coined by Mike Van Flandern of Microsoft when he proposed that the USB committee create a Human Input Device class working group. [when?
A touchscreen (or touch screen) is a type of display that can detect touch input from a user. It consists of both an input device (a touch panel) and an output device (a visual display). The touch panel is typically layered on the top of the electronic visual display of a device.
User interfaces are composed of one or more layers, including a human–machine interface (HMI) that typically interfaces machines with physical input hardware (such as keyboards, mice, or game pads) and output hardware (such as computer monitors, speakers, and printers). A device that implements an HMI is called a human interface device (HID).
Multi-touch screen. In computing, multi-touch is technology that enables a surface (a touchpad or touchscreen) to recognize the presence of more than one point of contact with the surface at the same time. The origins of multitouch began at CERN, [1] MIT, University of Toronto, Carnegie Mellon University and Bell Labs in the 1970s. [2]
A computer printer is a computer peripheral device that produces a hard copy (permanent human-readable text and/or graphics usually on paper) from data stored in a computer connected to it. A virtual printer is a piece of computer software whose user interface and API resemble that of a printer driver, but which is not connected with a physical ...
Human Interface Devices: Devices used by the users to interface with the OS (eg. Touchpads, Pens, Mices and Keyboards) Printer devices: Drivers that contain printer information. Hidden category since Windows Vista. Imaging devices: Webcams and Scanners. A new webcam class driver was introduced in Windows 10 v1709.
A touch user interface (TUI) is a computer-pointing technology based upon the sense of touch ().Whereas a graphical user interface (GUI) relies upon the sense of sight, a TUI enables not only the sense of touch to innervate and activate computer-based functions, it also allows the user, particularly those with visual impairments, an added level of interaction based upon tactile or Braille input.
