WHAT ARE
DIFFERENT
OUTPUT
DEVICES? 2
Any peripheral that accepts data from
a computer and prints, projects, or
reproduces it is known as an output
device. The output may be audio, video,
hard copy – printed paper, etc. Output
devices convert computer data to a
humanly understandable form.

We give input to the computer using

input devices and the computer
performs operations on the data and
displays the output to the user using the
output device.

 1. MONITOR
A computer’s principal output
device is a monitor, often
known as a Visual Display
Unit (VDU). It displays the
processed data like text,
images, videos, audio, etc. It
makes images by arranging
microscopic dots in a
rectangular pattern, known as
pixels. The sharpness of an
image is determined by the
number of pixels.

2. PRINTER

Printers are information

output devices that allow you
to print data on paper. Or in
other words, it is an output
device that creates a hard
copy of the processed data or
information.
 3. PLOTTER
A plotter is a device that prints high-quality graphics in a
variety of color formats. It works in a similar way to a
printer, although it has more advanced features. It is used to
print large maps, architectural drawings, large-format
printing, and create pictures, 3D postcards, advertising
signs, charts, and various designs of the internal structure
of building machines.
Three types of plotters are most popular for their ability to
allow you to create different designs.

the drum plotter, the flatbed plotter, and the inkjet

plotter.
DRUM PLOTTER
is a specialized output device
whose name indicates its
function. This device works
by moving a pen on a single-
axis track while the paper
moves on a cylindrical drum.
Typically, the drum moves
the paper to the right and
left, while the pen or pens
draw up and down. If you use
more than one pen, then you
can have different colors.
FLAT BED PLOTTERS

Flatbed plotters are

available in larger sizes than
drum plotters. That makes
them an ideal choice to
create even larger
documents, particularly if
you are consistently printing
larger architectural or CAD
drawings.
INK JET PLOTTERS
This device pushes beads of ink
directly onto the surface of
whatever you are printing on.
Inkjet plotters have a couple of
unique advantages in that they
are affordable and versatile.
More so than any other plotter,
there is certainly an inkjet to suit
every individual or company and
their different needs.
4. PROJECTOR
A projector is a device that
allows users to project their
output onto a large area, such
as a screen or a wall. It can be
used to project the output of a
computer and other devices
onto a screen. It magnifies
texts, photos, and movies
using light and lenses. As a
result, it’s an excellent output
device for giving
presentations or teaching big
groups of people.
5. SPEAKERS
Speakers are connected to
computers to allow sound to be
output. For the working of
speakers, sound cards are
required. From simple two-
speaker output devices to
surround-sound multi-channel
sets, speakers come in a variety of
shapes and sizes. They take audio
input from the computer’s sound
card and output sound waves as
audio output.
6. HEADPHONES
To hear the sound, use earbuds
with your PC, laptop, or
smartphone. It enables you to
hear the sound without causing
any inconvenience to others. They
can be wired or wireless and can
be connected to computers,
laptops, mobile phones, etc.
 7. SPEECH SYNTHESIZER
A speech synthesizer is a
computerized device that takes in
data, interprets it, and generates
audible words. It might be a
computer card, a box connected
by a cable, or software that works
with the computer’s sound card.

8. SOUND CARD
Sound cards are computer output
devices that are inserted into the
computer. A sound card, either
external or internal, is required to
produce sound on any computer
(built-in). An external sound card
enables better overall sound
generation and is required for
wide and clear sound recording,
as well as sound without noise and
interference.
9. VIDEO CARD
An extension card via which a
computer can transfer graphical
data to a video display device like
a TV, projector, or monitor. It
processes photos and video, as
well as other functions that the
CPU generally does. As they have
a good processing capability and
video RAM, Gamers utilize video
cards.
10. GLOBAL POSITIONING
SYSTEM (GPS)
The Global Positioning System
(GPS) is a radio-based satellite
navigation system that uses radio
signals to pinpoint a specific
position. The sender sends a radio
signal to satellites, which collect
data such as time, location, speed,
and other variables and deliver it
to the reception computer for
analysis. Because this processed
data can be evaluated to obtain
information, it is considered as an
output device.
