Introduction
The technological progress in the electronics and telecommunications area made the evolution of various advanced systems in the automotive industry. Automotive embedded systems are typical microcontroller systems with specific purposes, normally with real-time computation captivity. In automobiles, embedded systems are used in infotainment and telematics, ADAS, airbags, head-up displays, electronic brake systems, power steering, and active suspension, among others.
Today, carmakers and their suppliers are undergoing a phase of hardship caused by the excessive importance and added utility of electronics. Most of today's embedded systems are challenged to operate where the aspects of the computational load cannot always be predicted in advance.
Automotive embedded system is the backbone of modern vehicles to make them more efficient, safety (Brake system, Airbag system, Electronic Stability Program), driver assistance systems (Navigation, night vision, blind spot detection) or to comply with legal necessities (reducing the emission of pollutants by intelligent engine control), comfy and secure. An increase in the complexity of modern cars also increase the demands overwhelmed on diagnostics, maintenance and repair. Currently, there is a noticeable shortage of qualified automotive technicians with excellent skills. Vehicles will continue to become more complex; therefore, the need for good technicians will continue to grow. Hence there is the need for a practical training program in automotive electronics with emphasis on Embedded System of Vehicle.
