Mechatronic systems are transforming our world, with robots as some of the most impactful examples. These versatile machines enhance efficiency across diverse fields, from manufacturing and agriculture to household tasks and space exploration.
Robots highlight the power of mechatronic system integration , where mechanical, electronic, and control systems are seamlessly combined to relieve humans of repetitive or hazardous tasks.
This course provides essential knowledge and practical skills for system integration in mechatronics, with a focus on robotics.
Participants will learn to tackle the challenges of integrating multiple engineering disciplines to design and develop robotic applications. Through hands-on learning activities and real-world examples, you’ll gain the skills needed to conceptualize, build, and control fully integrated mechatronic systems and robots.
Who is this course for?
Designed for engineering students, young engineers or experienced specialists, this course offers an ideal gateway to mastering robotic systems.
A hands-on approach: build your own robot
One of the course's unique features is its use of modular mechatronic educational hardware.
This hardware facilitates a systematic approach to designing robotic applications, guiding you through the entire process of mechatronic system integration – from conceptualization and analysis to construction and control.
The open-source hardware and firmware enables customization, making it adaptable for various applications, including student thesis projects.
Full Program
This course is an initiative of the Erasmus + project GEMS (Graceful Equalizing of Mechatronics Students). It is the last course of the online program: Building Robots: From Mechatronic Components to Robotics , developed by GEMS partners, with the University of Ljubljana leading the part about system integration in robotics.
