INTRODUCTION
• Mechatronics is a broad term integrating mechanical,
telecommunication, computer engineering and frequently using
micro-processors.
3
AUTOMOBILE APPLICATIONS
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• Brake by wire system
• Steer by wire
• Integrated vehicle dynamics
• Integrated starter alternator
SENSORS
• Safety sensor system
• Solid state LIDAR sensor
• Wireless sensor networks
4
TRANSPORTATION
APPLICATIONS
High Speed Trains
• Train position and velocity constantly
monitored from main command
centre.
• Error margin in scheduling no more
than 30 seconds.
• Fastest trains use magnetic levitation.
5
TRANSPORTATION
APPLICATIONS
SEGWAY
System uses
• Tilt and pressure sensors
• Microcontroller
• Motors
• Onboard power source
ADVANTAGES
• Simple and intuitive personal
transportation device.
6
MEDICAL APPLICATIONS
PROSTHETICS
Arms, legs, etc., can be replaced
with electromagnetic ones
TECHNOLOGY
• Myoelectric sensors
• Ultrasonic range sensors
• EMG sensors
• Microprocessor controlled
prosthetics
7
MEDICAL APPLICATIONS
PACE MAKER
• Patients with slow or erratic heart
rates use pacemakers.
• Pacemaker sets heart rate to
normal when any irregular
rhythm in heart rate is detected
COMPONENTS OF PACE MAKER
• Pulse generator
• One or more leads
• An electrode on each lead
8
SANITATION APPLICATIONS
• Proximity sensors
• Control circuits
• Electromechanical valves
• Independent power source
ADVANTAGES
• Reduces germs spread
• Reduces water wastage
9
SANITATION APPLICATIONS
SOAP & PAPER TOWEL
DISPENSERS
• Motion sensors
• Control circuits
• Electromagnetic actuators
• Infrared light sensors
• Photo sensors
ADVANTAGES
• Reduces germs spread
• Pre-set dispense amount
10
SPORTS APPLICATIONS
RUNNING SHOES
SENSORS
• Pressure sensors
• Accelerometers
• Performance monitoring
• Wearable sensors
