 Introduction
• What is mechatronics?
• Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of mechanical engineering (“mecha” for
mechanisms), electronic engineering (“tronics” for electronics), and software
engineering.
• The word “mechatronics” was first coined by Mr. Tetsuro Moria, a senior engineer of a
Japanese company, Yaskawa, in 1969.

 Introduction
• What is mechatronics?
• Harashima, Tomizuka and Fukada in 1996.
• Mechatronics is the synergistic integration of
mechanical engineering with electronic and
intelligent computer control in the design
and manufacturing of industrial products and
processes.

 Introduction
• What is mechatronics?
• Shetty and Kolk in 1997
• mechatronics is a methodology used
for the optimal design of
electromechanical products.

• Bolton defines mechatronics as:

• System which is not just a marriage of
electrical and mechanical system, it is
more than just a control system; it is
the complete integration of all of them.
