It’s a great pleasure for me to write the Preface of a book which aims to help to implement one of the oldest technologies (data acquisition) using one of the concepts (embedded system) that will reshape the future of the world. The first known acquisition system used was by Egyptian pharaohs in 2500 BC to record the water flow of the Nile to predict flood. From this ancestor engraving down values on stone, with an imaginary time travel, we arrive in 1963: in that year
