Mr. Vijaya Bhasker Reddy, Assistant Professor introduced the guest faculty Dr. Rajendra Prasad to students and handed over the session. Dr. Rajendra Prasad started the session with a real-world example of RTOS based embedded systems by creating interest among students.The speaker demonstrated the integration of ARM Cortex, Beagle Bone, and Raspberry Pi boards for interfacing and their applications in Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS). ARM Cortcx proccssors, known for powcr cfficicncy and scalability, support various RTOSs likc Free RTOS and ARM RTX, enabling precise task scheduling and real-time responses. Beagle Bone boards, featuring ARM Cortex-A8 processors and dual Programmable Real-time Units (PRUs). excel in industrial automation and robotics by offloading critical tasks enhanced real-time performance. Raspberry Pi, powered by ARM Cortex cores (e.g., Cortex- A72), provides general computing capabilities with GPIO expandability. Although typically running Linux, real-time behaviour can be achieved using RTOS or real-time patched Linux (PREEMPT-RT). Demonstrations showcased GPIO interfacing, task scheduling, and intemipt handling to highlight real-time applications like sensor control, robotics, and IoT edge computing, emphasizing the critical role of RTOS in ensuring deterministic task execution
Objective: To Demonstrate the process of RTOS development in an embedded system
Outcomes: To Identify the tools and process of designing of an RTOS based embedded system design using ARM and Advanced controllers.
