Hardware Testing

What this category can do

Hardware testing tools check what the browser can see from local devices: keyboard keys, mouse buttons, refresh rate, system information, sound level, microphone input and camera access. They are useful for quick troubleshooting, but they do not replace driver, firmware or repair diagnostics.

Most tools process input in the browser when possible. For files, tokens, documents or network checks, review the selected tool before using sensitive data.

Common use cases

  1. Confirm whether keyboard keys, mouse buttons or wheel actions register correctly.
  2. Check refresh rate and screen behavior after changing display settings or cables.
  3. Test microphone, camera and ambient sound before a meeting, recording or support session.

FAQ

Why can the browser not access my camera?

Permission may be denied, another app may be using it, or the operating system may block browser access.

Can this diagnose every hardware fault?

No. It confirms browser-visible behavior; physical faults and driver problems may need system tools.

Why is refresh rate lower than expected?

Cable type, graphics settings, display mode and browser timing can all affect the measured value.

Is the decibel meter precise?

It is useful for rough comparison, but ordinary microphones are not calibrated sound meters.
