Hardware—computer

Computer hardware refers to the physical parts of a computer as distinguished from the computer software that executes within the hardware.

Computer hardware includes such items as keyboards, mouse, scanners, anti-glare screen filters, printers, monitors and many other similar items which can greatly benefit all individuals, including individuals with disability.
