Preface

According to the original deﬁnition of mechatronics that the Yasakawa Electric Company proposed and

the deﬁnitions that have since appeared, many engineering products designed and manufactured in the

last thirty years that integrate mechanical and electrical systems can be classiﬁed as

mechatronic systems

In trademark application documents, Yasakawa deﬁned mechatronics in this way:

is composed of “mecha” from mechanism and the “tronics” from electronics.

In other words, technologies and developed products will be incorporating electronics more and

more intimately and organically into mechanisms, making it impossible to tell where one ends and

the other begins.

mechatronics

Where is mechatronics today? The advent of the microcomputer, embedded computers, and associated

information technologies and software advances have led to important advances in mechatronics. For

example, consider the automobile. In the early stages of automobile design, the radio was the only

signiﬁcant electronics in it. All other functions were entirely mechanical or electrical. Today, there are

about 30–60 microcontrollers in a car. And with the drive to develop modular systems for plug-n-play

mechatronics subsystems, this is expected to increase.

provides an introduction to the vibrant ﬁeld of mechatronics. As the

historical divisions between the various branches of engineering and computer science become less clearly

deﬁned, the mechatronics specialty provides a roadmap for nontraditional engineering students studying

within the traditional structure of most engineering colleges. Evidently, mechatronics laboratories and

classes in the university environment are expanding world-wide. The list of contributors to this book

that includes authors from around the globe reﬂects this.

was conceived as a reference resource for research and development depart-

ments in academia, government, and industry, and for university libraries. It also was intended as a

resource for scholars interested in understanding and explaining the engineering design process. The

success of the full-scale handbook spawned the idea that a more condensed book, providing a general

impression of the subject, would beneﬁt those searching for an overview of the mechatronics. This book

intends to serve this new audience.
