Centre for Microprocessor and Embedded Systems

Embedded systems technology has become an enabler for the rapidly expanding world of smart and connected IoT ecosystems. The broad, diverse, and highly fragmented embedded systems market consists of software, development platforms, and hardware. More industries, products, and services than ever now rely on embedded systems. The major motive of this lab is to focus in making students aware with hardware related designs. Practical applications of ideas are very important to precisely grasp the concepts and it also unveils the hidden complication in practical scenarios. It itself encourages innovative ideas by housing prototyping materials.

Objectives :
  • To support students with the necessary resources to participate in national level competitions.
  • To create opportunities for students and faculty members to execute industry consulting projects.
  • To provide a platform for the students to do multidisciplinary projects.
  • To provides extensive hands-on to design various embedded system and exposes with the tools required to turn them into real world
