    What type of input device, other than a digital camera allows video to be input into a computer system?

    • Scanner

    • Microphone

    • Graphics Tablet

    • Digital Video Camera

    • Keyboard

    Correct Answer
    A. Digital Video Camera
    Explanation
    A digital video camera is the correct answer because it is specifically designed to capture and record videos. Unlike other input devices listed, such as a scanner or graphics tablet, which are primarily used for capturing still images or drawings, a digital video camera is capable of capturing moving images and recording videos. A microphone is used for audio input, while a keyboard is used for text input. Therefore, a digital video camera is the most suitable input device for transferring video content into a computer system.

    Correct Answer
    A. Scanner
    Explanation
    Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software assists the user in entering text into a computer by using a scanner. A scanner is an input device that converts physical documents or images into digital format. OCR software then analyzes the scanned document and converts the text into editable and searchable text that can be entered into a computer. This allows users to easily input text from physical documents without having to manually type it.

    Explanation
    Handwriting Recognition software assists the user in entering text into a computer by using a Graphics Tablet. A Graphics Tablet is an input device that allows the user to write or draw on a special pad using a stylus or pen-like device. The tablet then captures the user's handwriting and converts it into digital text, which can be entered into the computer. This technology is particularly useful for individuals who prefer handwriting over typing or for tasks that require a more natural input method.
