The field of study that combines electronics and computer science to develop smart devices is known as embedded systems. Embedded systems involve integrating hardware and software to create specialized computing environments designed for specific functions. This field includes the development of microcontrollers, sensors, and actuators that enable devices to perform tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously. Applications of embedded systems range from consumer electronics, such as home appliances, to critical systems in automotive and healthcare sectors, emphasizing efficiency and reliability in design.
