Abstract

This paper examines the role of embedded electronics as the fundamental infrastructure enabling Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. Through the integration of microcontrollers, sensors, and communication modules, embedded systems allow devices to collect, process, and transmit data within interconnected networks. Their functionality supports real-time monitoring, automation, and intelligent decision-making across modern industrial and digital systems.
