Objective:
An embedded system is a combination of hardware and software provided that both should be
synchronized with each other. Some examples are as follows: industrial machines, automobiles,
medical equipment, cameras, household appliances, airplanes, vending machines etc. The Arduino is
an open-source computer hardware/software platform for building digital devices and interactive
objects that can sense and control the physical world around them. In this course students will learn
how the Arduino platform works in terms of the physical board and libraries and the IDE (Integrated
Development Environment). The course will also cover programming the Arduino using C code and
accessing the pins on the board via the software to control external devices.
Learning Outcome:
After the completion of the course, the students will be specialized in Embedded System Design
using Arduino.
