This project simulates a real-time hazard response system for an aerospace/defense context. A potentiometer acts as a hazard intensity input, a pushbutton acts as a pilot override for the hazard event, a green LED indicates a system heartbeat, and a red LED indicates threats. The design uses an ISR, multiple FreeRTOS tasks, semaphores, a queue, and a mutex to guarantee a hard deadline on the override path while keeping the rest of the system responsive.
