Real-time control systems
Real-time control systems are systems that monitor and manage processes or equipment immediately as data is received, ensuring actions happen within strict time limits. They are essential in scenarios where timely responses are critical, such as in industrial automation, vehicle control, or medical devices. These systems continuously collect data, analyze it, and make adjustments on the fly to maintain optimal operation, safety, and performance. The key feature is their ability to act quickly and predictably, ensuring processes are controlled precisely when needed.
