title: Embedded Systems

## Embedded Systems
An Embedded System is a dedicated computing system designed to perform a specific task. It is often used within a larger system. Instead of receiving command and programs to perform as in a general-purpose computer, the embedded system will continuously perform the same tasks and is supposed to recover from minor errors on its own.
## Example applications
* Air Conditioner: An embedded system is responsible to check the temperature sensor and compare the reading to the target temperature, and activate or deactivate the air conditioning motors to ensure the target temperature.
* Microwave oven, video game consoles, mp3 players, automatic doors, temperature controlling inside a computer cpu, Anti-lock Braking System
