Closeup of a touchpad on an Acer CB5-311 laptop Closeup of a touchpad on a MacBook 2015 laptop. A touchpad or trackpad is a type of pointing device.Its largest component is a tactile sensor: an electronic device with a flat surface, that detects the motion and position of a user's fingers, and translates them to 2D motion, to control a pointer in a graphical user interface on a computer screen.
The maximum delay required for two consecutive clicks to be interpreted as a double-click is not standardized. According to Microsoft's MSDN website, the default timing in Windows is 500 ms (half a second). [6] The double-click time is also used as a basis for other timed actions. The double-click timing delay can usually be configured by the user.
Users can apply a force on the input surface to interact with the displayed content in a way that a normal touch would not. 3D touch enables software features such as pressing hard to access a shortcut menu for an app, and pressing hard on a website link to show a preview of the web page. 3D Touch has three settings for input sensitivity.
Leap Motion, Inc. (formerly OcuSpec Inc.) [1] [2] was an American company, active from 2010 to 2019, that manufactured and marketed a computer hardware sensor device. The device supports hand and finger motions as input, analogous to a mouse, but requires no hand contact or touching.
In computing, multi-touch is technology which enables a touchpad or touchscreen to recognize more than one [7] [8] or more than two [9] points of contact with the surface. Apple popularized the term "multi-touch" in 2007 with which it implemented additional functionality, such as pinch to zoom or to activate certain subroutines attached to predefined gestures.
Internal view of a Macintosh LC. The LC uses a "pizza box" case with a Processor Direct Slot (PDS) but no NuBus slots. It has a 16 MHz Motorola 68020 microprocessor which lacks a floating-point coprocessor (although one could be added via the PDS). The LC has a 16-bit data bus, which is a major performance bottleneck as the 68020 is a 32-bit CPU.
The LC II was sold at the same time as the Macintosh IIsi, which was more than $800 more expensive than the LC II, but did not have its 10 MB memory limit, 16-bit data bus, and mono audio output. The IIsi also includes a NuBus expansion slot that the LC II lacks, and can be powered on via a button on the keyboard, unlike the LC range which has ...
The Macintosh LC III is a personal computer designed, manufactured, and sold by Apple Computer from February 1993 to February 1994. [1] It replaced the commercially successful Macintosh LC II in Apple's lineup of mid-class computers, and was significantly faster, with MacWorld Magazine benchmarks showing 2x performance in all major categories - CPU, disk, video and maths.
