ENCS 6120 - Mechatronics Systems Design (3)

This course is aimed to cover from preliminary knowledge of mechatronics theories to a project-based mechatronic system design. The multidisciplinary content of this course include: mechanisms, electronics, sensors, control strategies with software, firmware, and hardware in the control loop. This course also discusses techniques and skills related to integrating mechatronics systems with sensors, robotics systems, programmable logic controller (PLC), and man-machine interfaces. Students who successfully complete this course should be able to tackle multidisciplinary engineering design projects requiring tight integration of mechatronics components and sub-components in support of embedded electromechanical mechanism and control systems.
