What are Embedded Systems?

Embedded systems are a combination of hardware and software designed to provide a specific function within a larger system. Embedded systems are increasingly common in the world of the Internet of Things as more of our devices and products are connected directly to real-time monitoring. System design for interconnected products allows computing systems to safely monitor, track, and repair faster than ever possible. Computer science can now create these intricate systems within a broader framework that makes it easier to control and implement these pieces without losing overall control.

The world is moving towards the ease of IoT. What used to take a ton of human power can now be accomplished by the power of machine learning and AI. Embedded system software ranges from little to no user interface to complex user experiences that more deeply connect us to the devices in our world. Consumer electronics, cars, agricultural equipment, manufacturing, and medical equipment are all possible locations for embedded software. The development process for this new era can be complex, and it's worth it to learn the types of hardware and software tools available to you.

Embedded Systems Courses

Wasada offers a course specifically in IoT design in partnership with edX.org. It will give you an overview of the operating systems required to build embedded systems and to maintain control. Other courses include UT Austin's Embedded Systems, a hands-on course designed to teach the control systems involved in our interconnected world, software development for a new generation of connectivity, and the programming languages designed to help machines communicate. Dartmouth teaches Linux basics, a foundation system in IoT on both system design and output devices. If you're looking for a comprehensive overview of how these embedded systems are transforming our ability to monitor products, IBM offers a professional certification course in Deep Learning, an improvement over the human resource model of maintenance and planning. It will teach you everything you need to know about employing a deep learning based systems design for higher-order monitoring for specific tasks or a range of functionality.

Build a Career Through Embedded Systems

Programming for our highly connected world is more than just general purpose computer programming. It involves a comprehensive selection of computer hardware and software designed to integrate our products and improve our quality of life. Real world problems are on the verge of disappearing thanks to embedded systems and their real-time operating systems. We can build models that help us with a range of issues and understanding how these systems link together could make you an in-demand talent for this new world.
