NIU STEM Café: Mechatronics: From Robots to Self-Driving Vehicles
From washers and dryers to drones, conveyor systems and self-driving cars, the results of mechatronics are part of our current lives and a high-tech future. Mechatronics is an interdisciplinary engineering field that integrates mechanical, electrical, computer and information systems throughout the design process to create a final product that’s better than the sum of its parts.<br/><br/>At this STEM Café, hear from two experienced engineering professors to learn about the mechatronics design process, the profession of mechatronics engineering and how mechatronics are making a d...
