2. INTRODUCTION TO
MECHATRONICS
The word mechatronics was originated from Japan (Yasakawa
Electric Company) in the late 1960s, spread through Europe, and is
now commonly used round the globe.
“The word, mechatronics, is composed of ‘mecha’ from mechanism
and the ‘tronics’ from electronics.
Mechatronics solves technological problems using interdisciplinary
knowledge consisting of mechanical engineering, electronics, and
computer technology.
