30 DATA USED IN TECHNOLOGY AND TRANSFER INTO INFORMATION
1. LAPTOP- is a small, portable personal computer (PC) with a "clamshell" form factor,
typically having a thin LCD or LED computer screen mounted on the inside of the upper lid
of the clamshell and an alphanumeric keyboard on the inside of the lower lid.
2. SMART PHONE- They are distinguished from feature phones by their stronger
hardware capabilities and extensive mobile operating systems, which facilitate wider
software, internet (including web browsing[1] over mobile broadband), and multimedia
functionality (including music, video, cameras, and gaming), alongside core phone functions
such as voice calls and text messaging.
3. HEADPHONES- Headphones are a pair of small loudspeaker drivers worn on or around
the head over a user's ears. They are electro acoustic transducers, which convert an
electrical signal to a corresponding sound.
4. EARPHONES- An electrical device worn on the ear to receive radio or telephone
communications or to listen to a radio, MP3 player, etc., without other people hearing.
5. PRINTER- A printer is an output device that prints paper documents. This includes text
documents, images, or a combination of both.
6. WALKIE TALKIE- A walkie-talkie, more formally known as a handheld transceiver (HT),
is a hand-held, portable, two-way radio transceiver.
7. ROUTER- is a device that communicates between the internet and the devices in your
home that connect to the internet. As its name implies, it “routes” traffic between the
devices and the internet.
8. MP3 PLAYER- is an electronic device that can play MP3 digital audio files. It is a type of
digital audio player (DAP), or portable media player.
9. TABLET- is a portable computer that uses a touch screen as its primary input device.
Most tablets are slightly smaller and weigh less than the average laptop.
10. CPU- the Central Processing Unit is the key component of a computer system, which
contains the circuitry necessary to interpret and execute program instructions.
11. SPEAKER- a device which converts an electrical audio signal into a corresponding sound.
The most widely used type of speaker is the dynamic speaker.
12. MONITOR- is an output device that displays information in pictorial form. A monitor
usually comprises the visual display, circuitry, casing, and power supply.]
13. KEYBOARD- is a typewriter-style device which uses an arrangement of buttons or keys
to act as mechanical levers or electronic switches.
14. THERMAL PRINTER- are most commonly used to print items such as receipts and
shipping labels. Thermal transfer printers use a thermal print head to transfer a solid ink
from a ribbon onto a label supply to produce a permanent print.
15. COMPUTER- is a machine that can be instructed to carry out sequences of arithmetic
or logical operations automatically via computer programming.
16. VR BOX- a head-mounted device that provides virtual reality for the wearer. Virtual
reality (VR) headsets are widely used with video games but they are also used in other
applications, including simulators and trainers.
17. MOTHERBOARD- a printed circuit board containing the principal components of a
computer or other device, with connectors into which other circuit boards can be slotted.
18. RJ45 CONNECTOR- a registered jack (RJ) is a standardized physical network
interface for connecting telecommunications or data equipment.
19. HUMANOID ROBOT- is a robot with its overall appearance based on that of the human
body. In general humanoid robots have a torso with a head, two arms and two legs,
although some forms of humanoid robots may model only part of the body, for example,
from the waist up.
20. CAMERA- a camera is an optical instrument used to record images. At their most
basic, cameras are sealed boxes with a small hole that allow light in to capture an image on
a light-sensitive surface.
21. DRONE- is an unmanned aircraft that can fly autonomously—that is, without a human in
control.
22. CABLE TESTER- is an electronic device used to verify the electrical connections in a
signal cable or other wired assembly.
23. SMART WATCH- is a digital watch that provides many other features besides
timekeeping. Like a smartphone, a smartwatch has a touch screen display, which allows you
to perform actions by tapping or swiping on the screen
24. GEIGER COUNTER- is an instrument used for detecting and measuring ionizing
radiation. Also known as a Geiger–Muller counter, it is widely used in applications such as
radiation dosimetry, radiological protection, experimental physics, and the nuclear
industry.
25. SMART CABLE- with a built-in microprocessor used to connect two devices. It
analyzes incoming signals and converts them from one protocol to another.
26. MODEM- is a hardware device that converts data from a digital format, intended for
communication directly between devices with specialized wiring, into one suitable for a
transmission medium such as telephone lines or radio.
27. CHARGER- is a device used to put energy into a secondary cell or rechargeable battery
by forcing an electric current through it.
28. SD CARD- are the oldest and least-used, and are limited to 2 GB of storage. SDHC
(High Capacity) cards can store up to 32 GB of data.
29. TELEPHONE- is a telecommunications device that permits two or more users to
conduct a conversation when they are too far apart to be heard directly.
30. CT SCAN- is a medical imaging procedure that uses computer-processed combinations
of many X-ray measurements taken from different angles to produce cross-sectional
images of specific areas of a scanned object, allowing the user to see inside the object
without cutting.
