Embedded Systems

Mankind’s untiring fascination with sophisticated embedded systems isn’t a new story. The good news is that some of these fantasies have already come to fruition in reality. In the years to come, robotic systems will play an integral part in our day to day activities as they come together with humans in making our lives a lot easier in various domains. Such an idea, for long, has been under serious consideration and research. Infact embedded systems is such a field which drives all our modern desires in today’s world. From our handheld devices to huge robotic space shuttles, each and every modern innovation is built around a proper electronic embedded system. Hence it’s very important for an engineer to specialize in this field which comprises complex electronic circuits, flawless electrical designs, and robust and reliable computing firmwares. Hence we, at Distronix, want to give you the opportunity to understand and become fully capable of making your very own intelligent platforms, and in the process take a small glimpse at the amazing world of electronic embedded systems. So let us enter and understand one of the most researched and challenging branches of science, together.
