This document provides an introduction and overview of mechatronics. It defines mechatronics as the synergistic integration of mechanical engineering, electronics, and computer technology for the design of industrial products. Mechatronics evolved from the industrial, semiconductor, and information revolutions to develop highly efficient systems through judicious selection and integration of sensors, actuators, control algorithms, and computer hardware/software. Common mechatronics applications include smart consumer products, medical devices, manufacturing systems, and automotive systems. The key elements of a mechatronics system are discussed as actuators/sensors, signal conditioning, digital logic, software/data acquisition, and computers/displays. Measurement and control systems are also introduced.

3 The word mechatronics was originated from Japan (Yasakawa Electric Company) in the late 1960s, spread through Europe, and is now commonly used round the globe. The word, mechatronics, is composed of mecha from mechanism and the tronics from electronics. Mechatronics solves technological problems using interdisciplinary knowledge consisting of mechanical engineering, electronics, and computer technology. In 1996, Harashima, Tomizuka, and Fukuda defined mechatronics as being the synergistic integration of mechanical engineering, with electronics and intelligent computer control in the design and manufacturing of industrial products and processes. Bolton presented yet another definition by saying a mechatronic system is not just a marriage of electrical and mechanical systems and is more than just a control system; the mechatronic system is a complete integration of them all. Mechatronics is the field of study concerned with the design, selection, analysis, and control of systems that combine mechanical elements with electronic components, including computers and/or microcontrollers.

6 Evolution of Mechatronics Technological advances in design, manufacturing, and operation of engineered products/devices/processes can be traced through: Industrial revolution Semiconductor revolution Information revolution Industrial Revolution Allowed design of products and processes for energy conversion and transmission thus allowing the use of energy to do useful work. Engineering designs of this era were largely mechanical e.g., operations of motion transmission, sensing, actuation, and computation were performed using mechanical components such as cams, gears, levers, and linkages). Purely mechanical systems suffer from Power amplification inability. Energy losses due to tolerances, inertia, and friction.
7
8 Semiconductor Revolution Led to the creation of integrated circuit (IC) technology. Effective, miniaturized, power electronics could amplify and deliver needed amount of power to actuators. Signal conditioning electronics could filter and encode sensory data in analog/digital format. Hard-wired, on-board, discrete analog/digital ICs provided rudimentary computational and decision-making circuits for control of mechanical devices.
9 Information Revolution Development of VLSI technology led to the introduction of microprocessor, microcomputer, and microcontroller. Now computing hardware is everywhere, cheap, and small. As computing hardware can be effortlessly interfaced with real world electromechanical systems, it is now routinely embedded in engineered products/processes for decision- making. Microcontrollers are replacing precision mechanical components, e.g., precision machined camshaft that in many applications functions as a timing device. Programmability of microcontrollers is providing a versatile and flexible alternative to the hard-wired analog/digital computational hardware. Integrated computer-electrical-mechanical devices are now capable of converting, transmitting, and processing both the physical energy and the virtual energy (information). Result: Highly efficient products and processes are now being developed by judicious selection and integration of sensors, actuators, signal conditioning, power electronics, decision and control algorithms, and computer hardware and software.
10 Mechatronics has evolved through the following stages: Primary Level Mechatronics: Integrates electrical signaling with mechanical action at the basic control level for e.g.fluid valves and relay switches Secondary Level Mechatronics: Integrates microelectronics into electrically controlled devices for e.g. cassette tape player. Tertiary Level Mechantronics: Incorporates advanced control strategy using microelectronics, microprocessors and other application specific integrated circuits for e.g. microprocessor based electrical motor used for actuation purpose in robots. Quaternary Level Mechatronics: This level attempts to improve smartness a step ahead by introducing intelligence ( artificial neutral network and fuzzy logic ) and fault detection and isolation ( F.D.I.) capability into the system.
11 Mechatronics Applications Smart consumer products: home security, camera, microwave oven, toaster, dish washer, laundry washer-dryer, climate control units, Automatic Digital Cemera etc. Computer disk VCR/DVD drives, ATM, etc Medical: implant-devices, assisted surgery, haptic, etc. Defense: unmanned air, ground, and underwater vehicles, smart weapons, jet engines, etc. Manufacturing: NC & CNC machine tools, Rapid Prototyping, robotics, etc. Automotive: climate control, antilock brake, active suspension, cruise control, air bags, engine management, safety, etc. Network-centric, distributed systems: distributed robotics, telerobotics, intelligent highways, etc.
