Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Concept

An input device is chosen according to the kind of physical action or encoded data it must convert into computer-readable input.

Direct drawing needs a position-sensitive surface, public self-service selection needs touch input, product identification uses encoded labels, and secure digit entry uses a restricted numeric keypad.

Application

Input device

Characteristic use

Graphics tablet

Captures stylus or pen movement for freehand drawing.

Touch screen

Accepts direct on-screen selections at a self-service information kiosk.

Bar code reader

Scans the encoded product label at a supermarket point of sale.

Numeric keypad

Provides digit-only entry for a personal identification number.

Cross-check

  • Each use requires a different input mechanism: drawing coordinates, screen contact, optical code scanning, or numeric key presses.

  • The one-to-one correspondence is: graphics tablet to freehand drawing, touch screen to information-kiosk input, bar code reader to supermarket product input, and numeric keypad to PIN entry.

Therefore, a graphics tablet maps to freehand drawing; a touch screen to information-kiosk input; a bar code reader to supermarket product input; and a numeric keypad to PIN entry.
