 Input Devices
The term physical device is somewhat ambiguous because simulator devices get their input from a keyboard and mouse, and a keyboard and mouse are certainly physical input devices.
Device proxies will be explain in detail in the section called “Device Proxies”, but for now, it will be helpful to keep in mind that the simulated device types do not refer directly to an event window.
Since mouse input is also considered a key press in the eyes of the Input Manager, a key/modifier pair may also be the combination of mouse movement and a modifier key or the combination of a mouse button press and a modifier key.

For other peripherals, check with your device manufacturer by visiting their website to see if the product is supported on a Mac.
While some devices such as external hard drives, digital cameras, DV camcorders, and input devices are simply plug-and-play, you will need to configure others before using them for the first time, such as your printer and modem, whether you've got dial-up, cable, or DSL.
Tip: Although some device manufacturers may not have a driver available for the Mac, there may be something available through open-source or a third-party developer.

Robo Systems' products consider an input device to be a peripheral that can provide a stream of position readings (in X,Y co-ordinates), and a signal corresponding to the pressing of at least one button on the input device.
Input drivers often require their corresponding device to behave in a particular way, which may require setting switches on the device.
Input devices are usually attached to RS-232 serial interfaces (ie, ports COM1 or COM2 on the IBM PC), although some (eg, the Microsoft Bus Mouse) use special interface cards provided with the device.

Controlling input devices is not nearly as cool as graphics manipulation or artificial intelligence, but without it you couldn't have a game.
In addition to managing the device state each time we poll the device, we want to make sure to release it when we are finished using it.
Now that we have access to the various forms of input devices, and know how to retrieve their state we need to know how to read the various state data structures to determine user actions.

 Using Alternate Input Devices in Your Smart Client Applications   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Summary: Input devices such as touch screens and remote controls are referred to as Human Interface Devices (HIDs) and the Windows raw input API provides us with a robust method of accepting input from any combination of HIDs.
In addition to traditional devices like the keyboard and mouse, input devices like game pads, joysticks, global positioning system (GPS), microphones, touch screens, remote controls, and many others, can all be leveraged in a reliable and flexible way in your applications.
Traditionally, applications received their input from devices in the form of messages that are posted to the application's message queue.

 Low Level MIDI API
Recall that Windows maintains separate lists of the devices which are capable of inputting MIDI data, and the devices capable of outputting MIDI data.
You pass the Device ID of the device which you want to get information about (as well as a pointer to a special structure called a MIDIINCAPS into which Windows puts the info about the device), The name of the function to get information about a particular MIDI Input device is midiInGetDevCaps().
So, with some devices, your app won't return from the call to midiOutLongMsg() until all of the data is output, whereas with other devices, you may return immediately and the driver will continue outputting the data in the background.
