About the Course

This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5315, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree. Course Description: In this course, students will design and build a microprocessor-based embedded system application using a real-time operating system or RT POSIX extensions with Embedded Linux. The course focus is on the process as well as fundamentals of integrating microprocessor-based embedded system elements for digital command and control of typical embedded hardware systems. Lab Description: The course requires the student to install embedded Linux on the Raspberry Pi ARM A-Series System-on-Chip processor. This course must be completed using a Raspberry Pi as an embedded system (headless) not a PC running Linux. You will however find Linux as a useful host development system or Windows with an SSH terminal access tool such as Putty, MobaXterm, or equivalent....

Excellent course with many real-world examples you can start using right off the bat.

Very informative, it might need some code updates but everything is alright.

Really good content. I learned a lot that will be directly applicable to my career. Class mechanics were a bit clunky due to all the peer-reviews (waiting for a peer to grade your work was sometimes challenging and I had to push out my schedule once or twice)... but the overall takeaway for me is that it was well worth it.

It is not easy to understand what they ask for in assignments. There are many comments about it in the first assignments.

order of the lectures is rather messy: some topics are taken as being discussed but which only follow much later in the course.

there is a lot of repetition in the lectures: some concepts are explained in code reviews and twice within the lectures.

I dont like the peer graded assignment modality also there is a lot of redundance in the course material. The starter codes make the assignment to easy while the objectives of the assignments are not very clearly formulated in many cases.

The content is interesting although a bit repetitive. The assignment descriptions are very unclear and unorganized.

The kit for course available for ~$180 on Amazon, other free RTOS courses on YouTube using ESP32 are available easily for ~$10-15, also course material is average.
