Question about a requirement of final project(Output Devices)

Hi My name is Kota Tomaru.

I have a question about one of the requirements(OUTPUT device) for the final project.

[Question] What is the definition of creating output device? For now, I am planning to create Interface board to connect my satshakit and a Motorshield (Adafruit motor shield). Can the IF board be considered as OUTPUT device to control motors? [Adafruit motor shield] https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-motor-shield-v2-for-arduino/using-dc-motors
