Most of us have witnessed the exponential evolution of the phone over the years. From clunky, bulky bricks that couldn’t store more than a few contacts to miniature computers, phones have come a long way. Given the long list of advanced features they come with today, it’s no exaggeration to say that our phones are our most used devices.
Mobile Phones and Driving – Health and Safety
Just like computers, your smartphone relies on a complex matrix of hardware and software connections to perform complex daily tasks. But where do phone drivers come into the picture, and why can’t your phone connect to your computer without them? Here’s everything you need to know.
Drivers are specialized software modules that connect the hardware of a device to the software of available programs. This allows the hardware components to "talk" to the operating system.
From peripherals like mice and keyboards to monitors and graphics cards, all hardware needs drivers to function and communicate with the operating system. Without the correct device drivers, your hardware won’t even be recognized, let alone function.
