WHAT IS MECHATRONICS

• Mechatronics a combination of Mechanical Electronic Computer Software Control Systems Design

• DESIGN, CONTROL & MANUFACTURE

• Eg: Robots, Photocopier, Disk Drive

MECHATRONICS

• Yasakawa Electric Japan, in 1969 coined the term MECHATRONICS

• Initially Mechatronics was referred to system with only Mechanical system and Electrical components, no Computation was involved.

• Example including the Automatic Sliding door, Vending Machine, Garage Door Opener
