Embedded systems are found in a wide range of machines, from industrial equipment and vehicles to robots and airplanes. The author specializes in robotic vehicles and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), particularly Underwater Robotic Vehicles (URVs), which are used for ocean exploration, environmental monitoring, and operations in extreme conditions.
Embedded Mechatronics System Design for Uncertain Environments is intended for those looking to develop and design embedded control systems for robotic vehicles. The book highlights the multidisciplinary nature of embedded systems, covering everything from initial mechanical and electrical concepts to modeling and simulation, graphical user interface development, and real-world implementation and testing. The author introduces new approaches for prototyping, simulating, testing, and designing real-time systems using standard PC hardware and platforms such as Linux®, Raspbian®, ARDUINO®, and MATLAB® xPC Target.
