Significance of Embedded Systems in IoT, Robotics and ML

This article is to highlight significance of embedded system knowledge in popular technical domain like IoT , Robotics and ML based applications .

IoT – Internet of Things

It is well known about Internet journey from PC-PC , Mobile-Mobile and last one sensor/actuator level. Internet communication can’t be done without protocols and protocol requires a programmable device and hence Embedded system. If someone is working on cloud based IoT application , Embedded knowledge is not mandatory but having Embedded background can help to understand the overall system behavior. IoT applications starts from wearables , Smart Home , Smart Neighborhood , Smart City , Agriculture , Retail , Industry etc. We provide a Getting Started course for First year engineering students. We have a team of experts to mentor interested students in this. You may find interesting topics about IoT at IoT Articles

Robotics

I had a discussion with 25yrs experienced Mechanical Engineer regarding Robot . He was very much sure that Robot is just mechanical application. It is true that without mechanical level design methodology we can’t make Robot but at the same time it is also true that we need motor control algorithms to move it and sensors , camera, mic, speaker etc. All this intelligence part can’t be done without programmable device and become Embedded system. We provide a Getting Started course for First year engineering students. It is suitable for 12th standard students as well and discuss growth plan. We have a team of experts to mentor interested students in this.

Machine Learning

It has two parts . The most challenging part depends on algorithms for creating and training a model . Finally this model has to be integrated in some hardware and most of the cases that will be Embedded only . I noticed many ML jobs require hardware background. For ex in computer vision . Xilinx vitis library team was looking for a person with software and/or hardware background . Have a look at their product to understand it better. We provide a Getting Started course for First year engineering students. We have a team of experts to mentor interested students in this.

Still doubtful , Have a look at one example Vitis . Another example is AI at Edge . You may also find some information articles shared by Embedded professionals at ML Articles.

Let’s see the unbiased open poll at Linkedin.

I am also addressing some frequently asked questions here .

Will Embedded System limit my career to Microcontrollers ?

I started my embedded journey with ROMless 8051 series device i.e. 8031 and worked upto 64-bit 8 core dual-thread ARM devices. Have a look at my notes on CPU performance

Why I am not getting job even after one year training from a training institute ?

Go through self-evaluation test and suggestion over mock interview with Embedkari Recruitment Service. It is the lowest cost course with insight of 27 years experienced embedded professional.

I just completed my Embedded Training , Could you help me getting job ?

Purchase Career Plus . If you have 3 out of 4 skills mentioned at Important Skills in Embedded , We will refund your money and help in getting job.

Any tips from already working Embedded Professionals ?
