Mechatronics is defined as the synergistic integration of mechanical engineering, electronic engineering, control engineering, and computer technology in the design of products and manufacturing processes. It combines these disciplines to create smart systems that are intelligent, efficient, and reliable. Mechatronics systems consist of mechanical systems, electrical systems, electronic systems, instrumentation and control systems, information systems, and computer systems. These systems work together using sensors, actuators and microprocessors to monitor and control mechanical processes. Some key applications of mechatronics include automotive mechanics, factory automation systems, and home appliances.
