Yuxin Intelligent (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. has joined the RT-Thread Embedded Software Talent Program and established Yuxin Academy. From the perspective of practical training for students, it has designed an online training camp focused on projects, practical skills, and valuable content, allowing students to master solid foundational skills and spend as much time as possible on practical projects, thereby providing practical talents for the embedded market.
Most embedded engineers, after reaching a certain level, want to further enhance their technical skills. At this time, learning Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) is indeed a good choice.However, many beginners in embedded systems generally feel that RTOS is difficult to learn. In addition to not understanding some basic concepts, the sheer volume of code can easily lead to frustration before even getting started.
I believe that most people have used the following methods when learning RTOS:
1. Searching for a large amount of information about RTOS online.
2. Buying a development board, then watching videos and materials to explore on their own.
3. When encountering problems, looking for answers online, posting on forums or WeChat groups.
4. When faced with difficult content, without guidance, they have to give up.
However, regardless of how abundant the online learning materials about RTOS are, many students still choose to give up before even getting started. Is RTOS really that difficult to learn?Looking back at when I first entered the embedded field, the first real-time operating system I encountered was μC/OS-II. At that time, there was only a limited amount of information available about uCos, and the materials were quite scattered, with no video tutorials. I had no choice but to dive in headfirst.As RTOS has developed to today, there are now many competing options, with many emerging in the domestic market, including the well-known IoT real-time operating system RT-Thread.
After 11 years of accumulated development, RT-Thread has established one of the largest embedded open-source communities in the country, and it is widely used in various industries such as energy, automotive, medical, and consumer electronics, with over 600 million devices deployed. It has become the most mature, stable, and widely used open-source RTOS developed independently by Chinese people.Moreover, to facilitate developers in learning RT-Thread, its official website provides a wealth of development documentation for reference.
However, even though the Chinese materials for RT-Thread are so abundant, beginners can set up the development environment based on the information provided on the official website, many still find learning and using RT-Thread quite challenging. Why?Ultimately, it is because beginners have not yet formed a systematic way of learning. Faced with the complex and diverse materials and tutorials available online, fragmented knowledge can actually hinder beginners from learning and getting started.Taking learning RT-Thread as an example, beginners usually need to understand concepts such as RT-Thread’s kernel scheduling, thread scheduling, multi-thread synchronization and communication, semaphores, message queues, memory management, and interrupt management.Furthermore, during actual project development, they also need to learn how to set up the development environment based on the development platform and how to port the operating system kernel to different chip platforms.Faced with such a wide array of complex concepts and operations, lacking a systematic learning plan, and trying to figure things out on their own, encountering problems without solutions, will inevitably lead to low learning efficiency and poor results, causing many to give up before they even start.
A reasonable learning plan combined with guidance from experienced engineers can not only improve learning efficiency and quality but also provide timely assistance when you encounter problems, helping you avoid unnecessary detours. This approach is much more efficient than simply studying books and videos on your own.In response to various issues faced by embedded RTOS beginners, such as low self-discipline, lack of interaction, difficulty in seeking help, and career choice confusion, Yuxin Academy has designed an online training camp solution to help more embedded engineers advance in their careers.

Compared to most domestic manufacturers that sell development boards and materials, Yuxin Academy’s online training camp solution emphasizes interaction between teachers and students, allowing students to receive timely help when encountering problems or confusion, reducing unnecessary time waste.Engineers interested can scan the QR code to add the WeChat of the instructor for more details.
The first phase of Yuxin Academy’s embedded core module course has been completed. Based on feedback from most students, we have compiled some practical resource documents, which can be obtained for free by adding the instructor on WeChat.
In this era of widespread internet access, facing a large amount of fragmented knowledge every day, knowing how to learn efficiently will help you better advance in your career.The workplace is not like school; in a fiercely competitive society, if you don’t move forward, you will fall behind. Maintaining a positive learning attitude and a humble approach will help you go further and faster in your career.I hope everyone can grow into engineers who solve problems in the workplace, rather than just code monkeys who copy and paste!
