Program Overview
The word mechatronics consists of two parts: "mecha" from mechanics or mechanism, and "tronics" from electronics or electronics. This means that mechanical products and mechanisms are equipped with electronic technologies and circuits to improve their performance.
Therefore, mechatronics is a specialty that aims to continuously integrate mechanics, electronics, control theory, and computer science into the design of products and manufacturing industries, improving and developing their performance .
Mechatronics engineering includes mechanical and electrical engineering, computer science, control systems, and data processing. Today, mechatronics systems have entered almost every device in our lives. They are found in washing machines, cars, sewing machines, and medical devices. They are also present in robots and various manufacturing machines. We find them in other advanced applications, such as the autopilot of the new Airbus
A380, for example, or in the electronic fuel injection system in cars , and ABS brakes in cars, among others. In short, mechatronics is a combination of technology and software to produce a better product. It is the future itself
