Input Without WiresEssay Preview: Input Without WiresReport this essayInput without WiresOn any given day, you encounter wireless technologies being used for a wide range of communications. Television remote controls, baby monitors, remote garage door openers, and cellular telephones, for example all use wireless technologies to communicate with other devices. Wireless technologies also allow input devices, such as the keyboard and mouse, to communicate with a computer.
A cordless keyboard and cordless mouse communicate with a computer using one of two wireless technologies: infrared or radio frequency technology. Infrared technology uses light waves to transmit signals to other infrared- enabled devices. Infrared- enabled devices, such as a notebook computer or PDA, have a small, red plastic- covered IrDA (Infrared Data Association) port that transmits and receives signals. Infrared technology, however, only can transmit signals approximately three feet, and the two IrDA ports must be in direct line with each other to communicate. Given the clutter on most peoples desks and the constant movement of a mouse, infrared technology is not the ideal solution for wireless input devices (Patsch 4-15).
Practical use
The PDA- and PDA-6 are designed with the intent of minimizing the potential for data loss. They are also designed and manufactured for use with small, portable computers or other high volume, portable storage and personal computing devices. If you are not comfortable connecting with a wireless device, such as a DVD player, you can make your own wireless keyboard and mouse. The keyboard should be connected with a power supply that does not depend on power, and there should be a wired cable that carries the USB input to and from the keyboard or mouse. However, many other wireless keyboards could not be used.

With radio frequency (RF) technology, devices transmit signals at least six feet, without a clear line of sight. Even piles of paper, books, and other desktop items will not degrade the communications among the wireless keyboard and the mouse and the computer. Given these
advantages, most users prefer a cordless keyboard and mouse that use radio frequency technology instead of infrared (Wireless Input).Connecting a cordless keyboard and mouse using RF technology requires two key parts: A transmitter and a receiver. The radio transmitter is inside the cordless keyboard or mouse. The radio receiver plugs into a keyboard port, mouse port, or USB port. Once the receivers are plugged in, the computer recognizes the devices as if they were connected directly by a cable.
According to Zataq and Lang, a new cordless mouse can transmit signals to a computer that is located more than 50 feet away (17-27).Works CitedPatsch,
