Embedded systems are, loosely speaking, combinations of software and hardware that are in some fashion immersed in other machinery or in an environment and often use sensors to monitor their surroundings and then some actuators to control in some way some aspects of the environment or machinery in which they are immersed. Such a system can be considered intelligent or adaptive when it somehow learns from previous operation or user interaction and modifies its present of future behaviour accordingly. In this course, each participant designs, implements, and evaluates an intelligent embedded system of their choice through independent study. There are neither joint sessions nor examinations. The instructor is available for guidance when needed.
