As a "computer system embedded in mechanical or electrical systems with specific functions and real-time computing capabilities", embedded systems are often used in consumer electronics, smart homes, industrial control, automation, transportation, medical, commercial, and military fields. .
Smart transportation
Embedded systems have been widely used in driving navigation, communication flow control, car service, information monitoring, etc., GPS positioning/navigation modules, GSM communication modules, etc., have been widely used in the transportation industry. In addition, avionics such as inertial navigation systems, GPS receivers, electrical/electronic motor controllers used in various motors, and embeddings for energy saving and emission reduction, which are increasingly used in fuel/new energy vehicles, are used on aircraft. Type system, as well as automotive safety system, ABS anti-lock braking system, electronic stability control system, traction control system, etc., are all applications of embedded sy
stems.Telecommunication system
From switches to mobile terminals, embedded systems are widely used in the field of telecommunications systems.
Smart home/traditional home appliances
As an important part of the Internet of Things, embedded systems are also widely used in the field of smart homes. The control systems of ordinary home appliances, such as microwave ovens, washing machines, dishwashers, lamps, temperature and humidity control, audio equipment, security monitoring, etc., have widely adopted embedded systems. These applications have brought better flexibility and efficiency to smart homes.
Consumer electronics
The mobile phones, DVD players, game consoles, camcorders, printers, etc. that have been mentioned above, and many consumer electronic products have embedded system applications.
Medical equipment
Vital sign monitoring equipment, a variety of medical imaging equipment, electronic stethoscopes, etc., a large number of medical equipment have embedded systems.
