Future of Embedded Systems- Offering An Excellent Career in the Future

Perhaps all of us have noticed that the world around us is getting smarter day by day. You can find yourself surrounded by electrical appliances made of highly intelligent systems. Do you know the advanced technology working behind those machines? It’s ‘embedded’ technologies.

With growth and advancements in the field of electronic systems, starting from wireless communications, cognitive devices, and robotics, we are equipped with mobile phones, laptops, tablets, etc.

Before moving into the details of embedded systems, let us discuss their applications in the following areas:

Ubiquitous Computing- This is a branch of engineering that teaches you about interconnected and integrated devices that we interact with every day. These objects can be your toasters, fans or electronic coffee mugs. As of late, ubiquitous computing targets smartphones and tablets but sooner or later, your game console will be able to talk to your smartphone and enable you to play the game you want!

Intelligent Devices- Gone are the days when humans were the only organisms on earth to think actively. Today, even machines have the capability to think and act like us. Intelligent devices are the systems which can think on their own. For example, iLumi, a bulb that can be operated with Android Operating system. Just enter your home, and switch on your lights with just a single click.

Internet of Things (IoT)- This concept was introduced more than a couple of decades ago. Since then, it has never failed to amaze us with various devices connected to each other through the internet. Physical devices such as home appliances and manufacturing systems are the best examples.
Your smartphone tells you about your sitting posture, you can monitor your machines from far away and direct your team of mechanics to do the necessary changes. Manufacturing companies have realized the importance of such a system and have started partnering with consulting firms which provide IoT services.

Cyber-Physical Systems- These systems play a vital role in the world of Internet of Things (IoT). They are supported by powerful computation and fast communication. That is why they have the capability of integrating the physical world with the cyber world. These systems are used for tasks which should be done with ultimate precision such as the implementation of robotic arms, space exploration and exploration of places in the earth where humans cannot reach physically and creating and deploying energy efficient systems.

Career in Embedded Systems:
In one more decade, embedded systems are going to be everywhere. Starting from every floor of your building to everyone’s pocket, embedded systems are going to be everywhere. Public transport, coffee mug, home, office, airplanes, and cars are just a few examples.

If you are interested in electronics and electrical engineering, this will be an ideal career for you. After completing engineering, you can go for a specialized certification course, receive project-based training and kickstart your career. Sooner or later, you will get a chance to deal with world’s most complicated and advanced systems.

Visual Effects Industry- How to Become an Eminent VFX Artist?

Apart from few documentaries, almost all movies, soap operas, advertisement and short films use visual effects (VFX) to make it visually appealing. While VFX scenes are mostly known for the eruption of tall buildings, giant robots, massive explosions and tsunamis, they can also be used for simple tasks like changing backgrounds to create simple magic. Today, VFX is widely used across various mediums and its power is utilized to create magic on the screen.

Visual Effects as a Career
VFX offers one of the most lucrative careers in most of the countries, including India. Digital artists from all over the world can get a highly paid job and freelance projects quite easily and make ‘extra’ money. Not only this, VFX offers you an entertaining platform to work. You feel excited about a movie release and creating magic on a 70 mm screen. You can boast of your skills when you get credits at the end of the movie.

This is an exciting career path for many. In fact, software engineers have started getting into VFX after spending few years in software development. This makes it the most demanding and competitive industry. Therefore, you should have extraordinary skills to establish yourself as a Visual Effects Artist today.

Become a VFX Artist: The Career Path
As you do not need to qualify yourself as a ‘graduate’ like in the other career profiles, the best way to start your career as a VFX artist is to get into a job while you are studying. You can join as an intern. You may not earn much during this stage in India but it will definitely boost your profile and increase your chances of landing up a highly paid job later.

The education and required experience may vary depending on the employer and region. There are no specific educational requirements to become a good visual effects artist but it is advisable to be keen to learn more.

Minimum qualifications to land up your first VFX job include the following:

  •          A Bachelors degree in Software Engineering, Fine Arts, Animation, or any visual art courses.
  •           A knowledge in a technical area, such as physics, mathematics, etc.
  •              Expertise in software such as Autodesk Maya,  Nuke, Adobe After Effects, etc.
  •              A strong demo reel or portfolio.
  •             Strong knowledge of 2D and 3D computer graphics as used in media production houses.

VFX artists work in the post-production department of a movie-making process. They need to ensure that the effects and dynamics are seamlessly integrated with the scenes. This technology is becoming more specialized with the increasing use of technologies. So, only the keen learners can establish themselves as eminent digital artists in the industry.

Start learning and never stop.

Sync your Passion in Embedded Systems- Go For a Specialized Course

Embedded systems engineer require a certain set of formal education in terms of degree, job responsibilities and certification options. Though it is a bright career path, it is imperative to check whether it is good for you.

 Embedded systems engineering is a separate branch of engineering studies. Aspiring engineers can pursue a bachelor’s or masters’ degree with specialization in this discipline. A number of organizations provide networking, professional certifications and continuing education programs to interested candidates. They also assist you to land up your first job in this field.

Important Information
Embedded systems engineering is a new branch of engineering studies and applications that merges electrical and software engineering. The embedded engineers work on both hardware and software parts for remote controls, electronic medical equipment, industrial control systems, systems of military operations, mobile communication devices, and other electrical appliances.

A prospective engineer should have a bachelor’s degree in a relevant discipline. Some schools and organizations offer related courses or certification programs in embedded systems engineering.
If you are having completed a graduate program in electrical or software engineering, you should go for a certification program.

Salary and Career Information
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has predicted that software engineers will see 17% more growth than electrical and electronic engineers in the current decade (2014-2024). They should qualify for ‘embedded engineering’ to be entitled to a great career in the field. The annual median salary is currently around $78,000 and is expected to grow by the end of the decade.

Embedded Courses
Students passionate about learning embedded technology can go for it after pursuing a graduate degree in a related discipline. Various institutes offer this course with excellent internship programs. Training programs are available for fresher’s and working professionals, who want to make their career in the industry. Such courses are a combination of practical training, strong evaluation and industry coaching.

The courses begin from the fundamentals of embedded system and the interaction of hardware and software systems. Once the students have cleared their fundamentals, the course advances towards basics of hardware design including ASIPs, ASICs, and FPGAs.

Then the students learn about the important issues related to design for less power consumption and the techniques to solve them.

Later, the students are introduced to advanced topics such as specification models and languages, mapping those specifications to hardware and software parts, and hardware-software partitioning. Students also get to learn about design verification methodologies adopted in embedded system practices.
