Summary

This free video course by Miro Samek shows how Object-Oriented Programming features translate to low-level code on microcontrollers. Readers will learn how encapsulation, inheritance, virtual tables, and patterns like state machines and active objects are implemented and optimized for firmware, bare-metal, and RTOS-based embedded systems.

Key Takeaways

• Understand the memory layout of C++ objects and how vtables implement virtual dispatch on MCUs
• Explain the runtime cost and implementation details of virtual functions, inheritance, and polymorphism
• Apply state-machine and Active Object patterns to build deterministic, event-driven firmware
• Optimize C++ usage for constrained systems to reduce flash/RAM/CPU overhead and to safely integrate with ISRs and RTOS

Who Should Read This

Embedded firmware engineers and MCU developers with C/C++ experience who want to understand OOP internals and apply object-oriented patterns efficiently in resource-constrained, RTOS, or bare-metal environments.
