What is Mechatronics?

Combination of Disciplines

Computer Systems, Mechanical Systems, Electrical Systems, Control Systems




Examples of Mechatronics Systems

Car headlights, automatic door, flow controller



Devices: Sensors, Actuators, Electronics, Computer/Processors




Micro-robots

Can be injected into the body without leaving a wound. Can deliver the medicine or operate
at precise locations (diagnose/cure)

, EX: fighting cancer, minimally invasive eye surgery, monitoring insulin




Computer controlled system

Power Source -> Actuators -> Machine/Process -> Sensors -> CPU -> Actuators OR <->
Operator/communications interfaces




Sensor/Transducer

a device which transforms non-electrical physical quantity (Distance, Mass, Pressure, Flow
rate, strain, velocity, light, temperature, movement, etc) into electrical signal (voltage,
current, Capacitance, frequency)




What are the Signals from Sensors?

Voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, magnetic flux intensity



-Typically weak, needs to be magnified, filtered, ready to detect/analysis



Signal from sensors->Magnify and filter -> Detectable Voltage or current




What is a passive component?

No need power to run the component
