Electronic systems are going to have so-called smart components. Smart function advanced appears in systems that are capable of taking sensor data and learning from them to perform tasks that recognize, classify, organize, group and determine actions based on new data similar to those previously captured.

The smart sensors integrate the transducer with a data processor that recognizes the data pattern and provides the upper subsystem with a more structured and useful description of the data (for example podometers or fingerprint readers).

In this subject, we teach data analysis methodologies, learning from them and design of intelligent systems based on the recognition and processing of this data.

All of this will be complemented with practices aimed at experimenting with the methodology and operation of the algorithms proposed in practical systems integrated into an embedded system: Smart Health, Smart detection of car breakdown, smart recycling, haptic systems, gesture recognition manuals etc.

The ultimate goal is for students to be able to investigate the application of the most advanced technologies in Advanced in Electronic Systems. In addition, the ability to analyze new and complex systems is sought.

It is engineering within a broader multidisciplinary context; select and apply the most suitable methods already established analytical, computational and experimental methods, as well as innovative methods and interpreting and criticize the results of these analysis.
