control knob
Rotary adjustment wheel
A control knob is a rounded dial you grip and turn to adjust a setting—volume on a stereo, temperature on a stove, brightness on a lamp.
The knob connects to a mechanism that changes values along a range: Turn the control knob clockwise to increase the heat.
In software, virtual control knobs mimic the analog experience.
