Hybrid platform MINERVA provides a convinient and flexible way how to comprise
most of the tasks and procedures associated with design and rapid evaluation of
safety oriented embedded systems. Typical arrangement of embedded systems include
processors, dedicated hardware (e.g. communication interface for actuators) and
application software.

Hyprid platform MINERVA represents an independent piece of hardware, which
includes powerful microcontroller with low voltage supply demands, gate array
FPGA and rich set of peripherals. Important aspect of the whole conception is the
usage of an advanced reprogrammable hardware based on FPGA arrays, which can be
modified according to the actual needs in a similar way like normal piece of
application on a PC. The substantial advantage is that user doesn't have to built
new hardware for each application separately.
