The blackberry also came out with the trackball, and now we have the touchscreen on many devices that is a continuous input. The future is expected to come out with more than what is already …show more content…
The function of an input device seems so simple, the concept of entering data into a computer using a piece of computer hardware equipment. Though, it is so much more complex than that. The keyboard functions as much more than something to type on, it is also a control center. Also, all the types of input devices for smartphones vary from the more simple hard keyboard to the more complex pieces of Bluetooth devices. These technologies and the advancements that have taken place thus far are all examples of where the future may take us.
