Input devices exist to insert the data into computers. In other words, you use them to tell the computer what do you want it to do. When I press "X" key on the keyboard I'm telling the computer write "X" on the screen.

Input devices such as keyboards, mouse, scanners, touchscreens, joysticks etc are peripheral devices to enter information into the system that computers can process.

These input devices converts special symbos, characters, and numerics into electrical signals by using keys or buttons that systems can understand and process easily.

It's required otherwise you have no way to enter data or issue commands on the computer. Even a touch screen monitor is considered an input device.
