The embedded system is defined as: application-centered, based on computer technology, with customizable software and hardware, and a dedicated computer system that meets strict requirements for functionality, reliability, cost, size, power consumption, etc.
In other words, an embedded system is a dedicated computer system, which is a concept relative to personal general-purpose computers. Personal general-purpose computers cover various functions, while embedded systems take a part of that and develop it according to customer needs.
With the above definition, we understand that embedded systems are a very diverse industry, where anything can be done. This article will list the industries that embedded systems can engage in and some commonly used chips (development boards) in embedded work.

Although domestic chips still have a long way to go (for example, the bug of GD32F103 imitating STM32F103: USB HID IAP process will interrupt, USB cannot connect (GD32F303) will not. Bug 2: ADC sampling)
However, after the recent round of sanctions from the United States, the road to domestic production will definitely become wider!
