: Engineers define the system's objectives and create mathematical models (often using block diagrams) to represent the behavior of various subsystems.
Mechatronics is the synergistic integration of mechanical engineering with electronics and intelligent computer control to create smart, responsive systems. The field focuses on replacing traditional mechanical solutions with "intelligent" ones—such as a smartphone camera's autofocus or industrial robotic arms—that offer higher precision and lower production costs. Core Phases of the Design Process Mechatronic Systems: Analysis, Design and Imple...
: This phase involves selecting sensors (the "eyes") and actuators (the "muscles") and running computer simulations to test how these components interact before building any physical hardware. : Engineers define the system's objectives and create
