      Hi Jess. I’ve no idea – you plug them in, turn them on, and stuff comes up on the screen? It’s something to do with processing electrical signals and converting them into different signals, but that’s about the extent of my expertise. There will probably be a computer scientists in one of the other zones. Check out their profiles.
