Human Interface Devices (HID)

The HID class [6] consists primarily of devices that are used by humans to control the operation of computer systems. Typical examples of HID class devices include:

• Keyboards and pointing devices for example, standard mouse devices, trackballs, and joysticks.

• Front-panel controls for example: knobs, switches, buttons, and sliders.

• Controls that might be found on devices such as telephones, VCR remote controls, games or simulation devices for example: data gloves, throttles, steering wheels, and rudder pedals.
