Development of Embedded Systems for Mobility—A Narrative Review

A computer system that is embedded into a larger mechanical system performs a specific task. Typically, it is integrated into a larger system. Software, electromechanical, electronic, and mechanical hardware are frequently covered. The embedded system has a specific function in mind. Engineers may now optimize the embedded system’s size and cost due to this fact. Additionally, better dependability and durability may result from this. Because embedded systems are mass produced, the cost of a single embedded system could be inexpensive due to the scale effect. Nowadays, embedded systems are used in the majority of systems (such as railmotive, avionic, and automotive). Embedded system sizes range widely. The scope of embedded systems includes everything from iPods to more complex uses like industrial assembly lines and the automotive industry. The difficulty of the development process is heightened by the embedded system’s size change. Use of development methods is essential to achieving this increasing complexity. This article summarizes the most popular standards in many mobility sectors and assesses their constraints in light of various aspects, including safety and security.
