U+1F5A6 Keyboard and Mouse

Die Wikipedia hat die folgende Information zu diesem Codepunkt:

In computing, an input device is a piece of equipment used to provide data and control signals to an information processing system, such as a computer or information appliance. Examples of input devices include keyboards, computer mice, scanners, cameras, joysticks, and microphones.

Input devices can be categorized based on:

• modality of output (e.g., mechanical motion, audio, visual, etc.)
• whether the output is discrete (e.g., pressing of key) or continuous (e.g., a mouse's position, though digitized into a discrete quantity, is fast enough to be considered continuous)
• the number of degrees of freedom involved (e.g., two-dimensional traditional mice, or three-dimensional navigators designed for CAD applications)
