C++ for Embedded Systems Training Course
Is C++ suitable for embedded systems such as microcontrollers and real-time-operating-systems?
Should object-oriented-programming be used in microcontrollers?
Is C++ too far removed from the hardware to be efficient?
This instructor-led, live training addresses these questions and demonstrates through discussion and practice how C++ can be used to develop embedded systems with code that is accurate, readable, and efficient. Participants put theory into practice through the creation of a sample embedded application in C++.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Understand the principles of object-oriented modelling, embedded software programming and real-time programming
- Produce code for embedded systems that is small, fast and safe

The trainer really adapted the training to our level and took a lot of time and efforts to make sure the presentation was well adapted.

Interactivity, time for self-contained programming. I learn easier if I have the chance to find out the answer and not just telling me it. It was also a very good thing that the training was well-planned, we kept coffee pauses and the training did not lose my attention. The trainer had very deep knowledge in C++, we felt we could ask anything.
