Embedded programming is a specific type of 
programming that supports the creation of 
consumer facing or business facing devices 
that don't operate on traditional operating 
systems the way that full-scale laptop 
computers and mobile devices do.

• An embedded software or embedded 
system programming is computer 
software, which is used to control devices 
by providing a set of instructions. 
• It is also named firmware, various devices 
with various functionalities can be 
programmed using embedded software, 
by maintaining design constraints.
