A device driver is typically embedded on firmware that is part of your computer?
A device driver is software that allows the operating system to communicate with hardware devices. While drivers can be stored in firmware, they are often installed on the operating system itself and can be updated independently. Firmware typically refers to low-level software programmed into hardware components, while device drivers serve as a bridge between the OS and the hardware. Therefore, not all device drivers are embedded in firmware, but some can be part of it.
What is the software that a computer needs to interpret input from input devices?
