# DESCRIPTION

The `uhidev` driver handles all Human Interface Devices. Each HID device can have several components, e.g., a keyboard and a mouse. These components use different report identifiers (a byte) to distinguish which one data is coming from. The `uhidev` driver has other drivers attached that handle particular kinds of devices and `uhidev` only dispatches data to them based on the report id.
