Greater value to mobility is one of the prominent reasons for the rise and development of embedded technologies.
Embedded Systems research and development is now concerned with a very large proportion of the advanced products designed in the world. In one way, embedded technologies run global transport industry that includes avionics, space, automotive, and trains. But also in the electrical and electronic appliances like cameras, toys, televisions, home appliances, audio systems, and cellular phones that really are the visual interface of Embedded Systems for the common consumer.
