    touchpads.
    HOW TO USE A TOUCH PAD?

    A touchpad is operated using your finger and dragging it across the


    flat surface of the touchpad. As you move your finger on the surface,
    the mouse cursor moves in that same direction.
    Touchpads typically use a variety of gestures to control the cursor and
    perform functions.
    EXAMPLE: If we tap the touchpad with one finger can select an item
    or open a menu. Pinching two fingers together or spreading them
    apart can zoom in or out.
    What is the purpose of
    touchpads?
    COMPARISION OF MOUSE WITH TOUCHPAD

    The purpose of a touchpad is to provide a more convenient and


    portable way of controlling the cursor on a computer screen.
    Unlike a mouse, a touchpad can be used on any flat or slightly
    textured surface, making it ideal for use on the go. In addition,
    touchpads are generally more compact than mouse, making
    them easier to carry and store.
    Physical Button Touchpads: Physical button
    touchpads are among the oldest and most basic.
    Physical button touchpads are still used in some older
    TYPES OF TOUCHPAD laptops and portable devices but are becoming less

    Clickable surface touchpads are a newer type


    that does away with physical buttons. If we tap
    the bottom of the touchpad may simulate a left
    click, while tapping the top may simulate a
    right click.
    Some clickable surface touchpads also
    support multi-touch gestures, allowing users to
    perform a wider range of functions.
    3. MULTI-TOUCH GESTURE TOUCHPADS:

    Multi-touch gesture touchpads are the most advanced


    type of touchpad available today. These touchpads use
    advanced sensor technology in order to detect and
    interpret a wide range of finger movements and gestures.
    For example, swiping two fingers up or down may be used
    to scroll through a document or web page,Some multi-
    touch gesture touchpads also support three-finger swipes,
    four-finger taps, and other complex gestures.
