| Jiri Kosina | 69e4d94 | 2007-01-03 23:03:14 +0100 | [diff] [blame^] | 12 | A human interface device (HID) is a type of computer device that |
| 13 | interacts directly with and takes input from humans. The term "HID" |
| 14 | most commonly used to refer to the USB-HID specification, but other |
| 15 | devices (such as, but not strictly limited to, Bluetooth) are |
| 16 | designed using HID specification (this involves certain keyboards, |
| 17 | mice, tablets, etc). This option compiles into kernel the generic |
| 18 | HID layer code (parser, usages, etc.), which can then be used by |
| 19 | transport-specific HID implementation (like USB or Bluetooth). |
