Well The Indian Institute of Technology Bombay Embedded Systems lab provides teaching and research in embedded systems and re-configurable hardware technology.

It is a cross-disciplinary facility with collaborative projects across departments such as Aero, EE, CSE, Mechanical Engg. etc.

Interest Areas

Hardware: Reconfigurable computing, hardware synthesis

Languages: Esterel, Handel-C, Embedded Java, Rational Rose RTOS: RT-linux, Palm
OS, Win-CE

Embedded control systems: automobiles (such as engine management systems), real-time
safety monitoring of industrial processes, etc.

Telematics: GPS based applications, driver-rating system with automobile "flight-
recorder" black-box, applications based on such devices

Projects completed in areas such as

Communication/Networking (design of wireless MAC for 802.11 protocol)

Digital Signal Processing (DSP) (PPEG-4 codec with encryption)

Encryption (IDEA, DES, etc. codecs)

Real-time Operating Systems (Applications)

Reconfigurable architecture (Inertial Navigation System)

The facilities at the lab comprise high-end desktop PCs hosting a variety of hardware and software including:
