The field of mechatronics is often directly defined by related systems and applications and is not considered a design methodology. At its core, mechatronics is a design approach that aims to optimize the development of complex products such as automobiles to save cost and time.
The mechatronics approach focuses on three main components: The understanding and mastery of these components is important for students to be competent in future mechatronics positions.
The three parts of the mechatronics design process are modeling and simulation, prototype verification, and deployment. Let’s look at modeling and simulation first.
