Title:  Aviation Safety / Digital Signal Processing using C and the TMS320C6211 board

Safety looks to prevent unintentional life-threatening events. Safety research is to develop prevention, intervention, and strategies associated with aviation accidents.

We speak in real-world, analog signals. Analog signals are real world signals that we experience everyday such as sound, light, temperature, and pressure. A digital signal is a numerical representation of the analog signal. It may be easier and more cost effective to process these signals in the digital domain. We can convert these signals into digital signals through an analog-to-digital conversion process, and if needed, convert the signals back out to the analog domain through the digital-to-analog converter.

The objective is to Use the CCS (Code Composer Studio) environment along with the TMS320C6211 board to implement and test voice signals; convert the input analog signal into digital signal and convert back into analog using a filter for good quality of sound at the output.
