 i +  NEW TRENDS IN HARDWARE

 Some hardware devices with new technology are already available, and some are in the process
 of development. Let’s discuss some of them.

 Wireless Devices

 Earlier, all hardware devices were connected to the CPU box through a wire. These days, almost
 every type of hardware has a wireless version available. They work with
