An embedded system is the one that has computer-hardware with software integrated in it as the most significant component. Embedded Systems Programming Training is aimed at providing high quality training to software engineers as well as those who wish to enter this field. In this training program, aspirants can learn practical lessons and techniques used to design, integrate implement, and test software used for advanced embedded systems. The training program offers the trainees with detailed description of the life-cycle for designing multi-objective and multi-discipline embedded systems. The main goals behind this training are:

  • Impart knowledge on designing of real time and embedded systems
  • Explain the basics of this system
  • Tell about writing a program for an embedded system
  • Show how to design, run and test these systems

Applications of embedded systems

Several fast developing sectors like automobile, medicine, industrial, communication, military, etc. have witnessed increased use of embedded technologies. Let us discuss its applications in detail:

Telecommunications: This industry uses plenty benefits of these systems in telephone answering machines, mobiles, ATM machines, pagers and others.

Medical: Use these systems in cardiac monitors, cancer treatments, renal monitors, drug delivery, prosthetic devices, etc.

Automobile sector: This sector has been at the forefronts for acquiring embedded technology in brake systems, theft deterrent devices, power windows & seats, etc. Embedded technology has helped in developing several automotive safety systems such as Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC/ESP), automatic four-wheelers, etc.

Railroad: The embedded technology enabled railroad safety equipment helps to manage and streamline railroad signals thus ensuring lesser disasters.

Electronic payment sector: The market for mobile payments is growing at a rapid rate driven by restaurants and other businesses to serve customers anytime and anywhere.

Industrial sector: This sector has reaped the benefits of embedded technology in robot systems, traffic control systems, bar code readers and others purposes.

Consumer electronics: Consumer goods using this technology include MP3 players, mobiles, videogame consoles, printers, DVD players, PDAs, digital cameras, etc.

Smart card industry: Smart cards appear as citizen cards, driver’s license and patient cards. You can even find contactless smart cards that are a part of ICAO biometric passports for a better security at international level. Most of the e-services including e-health, e-training, etc. are based on cutting-edge technologies using smart cards.

Aerospace & Avionics: This field demands an amalgam of hardware, electronics and embedded software. Embedded engineers have to face challenges like creating embedded systems, adopting latest technology like fly-by-fire, considering budgetary constraints and others.
