This course is designed to provide both theoretical foundations and hands-on experience in embedded systems through a series of structured tutorials. Each tutorial follows a consistent format, covering its Goal, Key Concepts, Required Hardware, Scade One Model Plan, Tasks, Deliverables, and Opportunities for Extension.
All lessons are intended to be implemented in Ansys Scade One™ model-based embedded software development solution, with code generation to C. These lessons will use the RP2040 (Raspberry Pi Pico) as a demonstration platform, however, the models and the generated code are compatible with any other platform that has a C-compiler.
The Raspberry Pi Pico will be mounted in the ready to use robot Adeept 4WD Omni-Directional Mecanum Wheels Robotic Car Kit for Raspberry Pi Pico.
