This document provides an overview of an introductory class on embedded systems and mechatronics. The class will cover servo programming and evolutionary algorithms in Phase 1. Phase 2 will focus on humanoid robots, models of robotics including mapping, grammars, automata, probabilistic models, and more. The document then defines embedded systems and provides examples of application areas such as automobiles, medical devices, office equipment, tools, banking, transportation, building systems, agriculture, and space systems. It also discusses microcontrollers, input and output, and social media links for further information.
