Input captures raw data, processing converts the data into a more meaningful form, and output transfers the processed information to people or activities where it will be used. Some of the output will be used to correct any problems found, and also to provide feedback that will then be used to evaluate the data.
A data acquisition system covers any system that converts analog waves into digital values for processing. A sensor that detects temperature, for example, takes the analog information and converts it into digital information that can be processed.
Processing.
Information System (IS) refers to a system of people, data records and activities that process the data and information in an organization, and it includes the organization's manual and automated processes. In a narrow sense, the term information system (or computer-based information system) refers to the specific application software that is used to store data records in a computer system and automates some of the information-processing activities of the organization. There are various types of information systems, for example: transaction processing systems, decision support systems, knowledge management systems, database management systems, and office information systems.

it converts the data into a type that any operating system can open
GPS (global positioning system) gathers geographic positioning data and converts to a file that can be used by a GIS (global information system) which can map it to show the location of the actual coordinates.

Computer is an electronic device which converts raw data into meaningful information and process it.
The computer component that converts raw data into significant information, interprets software instructions and controls output devices is the processor. This is what is commonly known as the CPU.
Output data is a signal or data sent from the information processing system to the outside world. The data can be sent to a human or another information processing system.
