Overview

To interact with an object, a mechatronic system must know where the object is, be able to move the object and place it in the required new position. The electronics require information from sensors that can detect position, orientation, and visual or audio signals. The electrical inputs from the sensors have to be interpreted and the appropriate signals sent out to the actuators to perform the required operation. A good understanding of feedback control is also required to be able to make changes in the system from one steady position to another without oscillations or unpredictable movements.

In this Mechatronic Engineering course at The University of Manchester you will learn the techniques necessary for the design and implementation of such intelligent mechatronic systems.

Aims

You will learn robotics, mechatronics, and autonomous system technology and how to incorporate an electronics nervous system into other engineering systems and devices.
You will be provided with ample opportunity for practical application and project work. These are strong themes throughout our course.
You will be taught by academics working on the cutting-edge of research, helping to solve the world's biggest challenges.
