Embedded Systems have a very important role in the modern life. We use them in our home, work, transportation, medical procedures, leisure time and so on. Despite of its great importance to our lives this kind of system steel lake a better process to improve the quality of its software. In this paper we present the results from a field research that focused the state of the practice of the embedded systems development, with special concern to the requirements elicitation aspects. The field research covered 53 embedded system practitioners that were predominantly placed in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The results offer a picture of the embedded systems development practice in Brazil, and probably mirror the reality of this area in the Latin America.
