Computer Architecture

Input Devices 

prepare a two to three (2) page paper in which you:

1. Compare how the gestures data is generated and represented for interpretation in each of the following input devices. In your comparison, consider the data formats (radio waves, electrical signal, sound, etc.), device drivers, operating systems supported, and interoperability between devices.
   1. Microsoft Kinect
   2. Wii remote
   3. Smartphone accelerometers
2. describe how each of the following input devices detects and generates a depth map in order to detect the location of the user. (Hint:Depth-aware cameras for input.)

1.  
   1. Microsoft Kinect
   2. Wii remote
   3. Smartphone accelerometers
2. Some industrial controls, automated manufacturing robots, and control systems depend on sensor generated and accelerometer data during processing. Analyze the accuracy of the input generated by each of the following input devices compared to electrical signals based methods of processing.

1.  
   1. Microsoft Kinect
   2. Wii remote
   3. Smartphone accelerometers
2. Select one of the three devices (Microsoft Kinect, Wii Remote, or Smartphone accelerometers) that you believe provides the best accuracy and describe why.
3. End users may be concerned with the safety of Microsoft Kinect, the Wii remote, or Smartphone accelerometers. Suggest ways of making these devices safe for industrial control systems, production robots, and other business applications that use sensors and accelerometers.
4. Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources. You may use the resources above or others of your choosing.
