An embedded system is a physical computer system with integrated software that uses a semiconductor microprocessor to carry out a particular task as a stand-alone or large-scale system. The central component of embedded systems is an integrated circuit designed to advance compute activities and processes in real-time. 

Currently, embedded systems have been increasingly used in the automotive sector. Embedded systems play a critical role in modern automotive systems by controlling various functions such as engine management, transmission control, anti-lock braking, and safety systems like electronic stability control and airbag deployment.
