ME 54700 - Mechantronics, Robotics And Automation


Modern products are mostly mechatronic products, where mechanical components are integrated with electrical, electronic, and control components to fulfill high-level system functionalities. Especially, robots are critical components in modern manufacturing; their roles to our societies are becoming increasingly of importance. The design, manufacture, assembly, and operation of mechatronic products require engineers to understand a wide scope of engineering knowledge and to be able to design and integrate mechanical, electric, and control subsystems. This course is designed for graduate students to (1) understand the concept of mechatronics, (2) learn design principles to integrate multidisciplinary components as a system to meet requirements of products, (3) gain the fundamental knowledge about robots and automation, (4) have hand-on skills in developing basic mechatronic products.
