Input Blocks
The input blocks receive information from the environment, such as sound, light, image or motion,
and the information is then converted into electrical signals. The signals will be transmitted to the output blocks
and instruct output blocks whether to responde or how to perform.
Input blocks are widely applied in daily life, like the light switch and the volume knob.
