OUTPUT DEVICE

 

OUTPUT DEVICES



Output Devices are those devices of the computer system that supplies information or result either in the form of hardcopy (printer) or softcopy (Monitor).

Now, What is Hardcopy & Softcopy?

A soft copy (sometimes spelled "softcopy") is an electronic copy of some type of data, such as a file viewed on a computer's display or transmitted as an e-mail attachment. Such material, when printed, is referred to as a hard copy .


Some of the common Output Devices are as follow:-

1. Monitor 


2.Printers


3.Plotters


4.Multimedia Projector 


5.Speech Synthesizer


6.Speakers


Some brief about the above:

1. Monitor (V.D.U)


Monitor is also known as V.D.U (Visual Display Unit) .It look alike a television and its size is measured in term of diagonal length of the screen.

Monitors are available in 9" , 12", 14" ,15" ,17" , 19" & even in 21" .
It shows text , pictures in color or black & white type. Color monitors are more costly than the black & white monitors.Whatever you type on the keyboard ,you can see it on the monitor.
 

Types of computer monitors


CRT (cathode ray tube) monitors. These monitors employ CRT technology, which was used most commonly in the manufacturing of television screens. 




LCD (liquid crystal display) monitors : The LCD monitor incorporates one of the most advanced technologies available today.






LED (light-emitting diodes) monitors. : LED monitors are said to use much lesser power than CRT and LCD. Thus, they are also considered environmental friendly.




2. Printers


  Printer is an external output device that takes data from a computer and generate output in the form of hardcopy.

Printer are two types :

a) Impact 

1.Dot Matrix Printers
2.Daisy Wheel Printer
3.Line Printer
4.Drum Printer
5.Chain Printer
6.Band Printer

b)Non Impact

1.Ink Jet Printers
2.Laser Printer

2. Plotters

A plotter is a computer hardware device much like a printer that is used for printing vector graphics. Instead of toner, plotters use a pen, pencil, marker, or another writing tool to draw multiple, continuous lines onto paper rather than a series of dots like a traditional printer. 

Though once widely used for computer-aided design, these devices have more or less been phased out by wide-format printers.
 Plotters are used to produce a hard copy of schematics and other similar applications.Plotter are widely used to print designs of things such as Car , Ship & Building on a piece of paper using a pen.

The first plotter was invented in 1953 by Remington-Rand. It was used in conjunction with the UNIVAC computer to created technical drawings.




4.Multimedia Projector

A multimedia projector is a compact, high resolution, full-color projector capable of projecting text, images, video and audio content. Typically the projector will feature inputs for a computer, DVD player, VCR, CD player and storage device.

Multimedia projectors are also referred to as data projectors, digital projectors and data/video projectors. These names can apply to both portable and ceiling-mounted units provided that they can project computer output.

Multimedia projectors are used frequently in classrooms, offices and gatherings at which multimedia presentations are made.

5. Speech Synthesizer 

Speech synthesis is artificial simulation of human speech with by a computer or other device. The counterpart of the voice recognition, speech synthesis is mostly used for translating text information into audio information and in applications such as voice-enabled services and mobile applications. 
Apart from this, it is also used in assistive technology for helping vision-impaired individuals in reading text content.


SPEECH SYNTHESIZER



6. SPEAKERS 


Speakers are one of the most common output devices used with computer systems. Some speakers are designed to work specifically with computers, while others can be hooked up to any type of sound system. 

Regardless of their design, the purpose of speakers is to produce audio output that can be heard by the listener.

WHAT IS A COMPUTER? Hardware & Software

In this blog we will discuss about ,"What is computer and differences among its part as Hardware & Software". We know that all information are scattered in google but I want to make it easy for our readers.Otherwise it is difficult to know which information is right and which is wrong . My Blog is dedicated to learners & easy learning  WHAT IS A COMPUTER? What is Computer  : Computer is an electronic device that is designed to work with Information. The term computer is derived from the Latin term  ‘compute’ , this means to  calculate  or  programmable machine .   Therefore computers can perform complex and repetitive procedures quickly, precisely and reliably. Modern computers are electronic and digital. All general-purpose computers require the following hardware components: §   Central processing unit (CPU) : The heart of the computer, this is the component that actually executes instruction...

CHARACTERISTICS OF A COMPUTER & CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (C.P.U)

Hello, Readers This Blog will help you understand the Characteristics of Computer & About C.P.U (Central Processing Unit ). Characteristic means Computer capabilities i.e Characteristics of Computer  1.Speed 2.Accuracy 3.Consistency 4. Data Storing Capability 5.Flexibility  A. Speed : A Computer is a very fast device .It can perform , in a few Second ,the amount of work that a human being can do in an entire year working round the clock .The speed of the computer is usually 2 to 4 GHz . A powerful computer is capable of performing  about 10 to 40 million arithmetic calculations in a second. or We can say that Computer speed is measured in   megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz). One Megahertz equals to one million ticks per second,one Gigahertz equals one billion ticks per second . B. Accuracy : The accuracy of a Computer is consistently high an the degree o accuracy of a particular task is 100% accurate.In  a every computer each and e...

VIRUS

                                  WHAT IS VIRUS ?                                                  A Virus is a program created by programmers which is used to infect the Operating System. After the virus code is written, it is buried within an existing program and once that program is loaded into the computer, the virus replicates by attaching copies of itself to other programs in the system. Viruses  are merely found in the network environment.       Virus is just like that illness for a computer.Think that what happen when you are ill, that your body functions are not working properly.As same Computer Virus is also do the same things with it. The term 'computer virus' was first formally defined by Fred Cohen in 1983. They are always indu...
