Introduction to Embedded systems

An embedded system is a computer that has been built to solve only a few very specific problems and is not easily changed. The word embedded means it is built into the system. It is a permanent part in a bigger system. It usually does not look like a computer, often no keyboard or monitor or mouse. But like any computer it has a processor, software, input and output. The Processor of the embedded systems must be micro processor or micro controller.

Some examples of embedded systems are MP3 players, mobile phones, video game consoles, digital cameras, DVD players, and GPS. Household appliances, such as microwave ovens, washing machines and dishwashers, include embedded systems to provide flexibility and efficiency.



An Embedded system includes both hardware and software. In general, hardware comprises the visible, physical elements, and software provides the invisible instructions that control the hardware and make it perform specific tasks. In this tutorial we will use arduino Uno (Single Board Computer), electronic components and sensors , Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment) and Arduino C programming launguage.
