Embedded System
An embedded system is a special-purpose system in which the computer is completely encapsulated by the device it controls. Unlike a general-purpose computer, such as a personal computer, an embedded system performs one or a few pre-defined tasks, usually with very specific requirements.

Embedded systems are often mass-produced, so the cost savings may be multiplied by millions of items.
