 So, what you saw just now, where some of the research level examples of mechatonic systems that we have built in our Suman-Mashruvala Advanced Microengineering Laboratory, ok. This mechatonic systems nowadays if you see are integral part of our life. Every single thing that we come across or in our day to day activities have some touch of mechatronics to it. If you take your clothes, for example textile industry has a lot of automation in it. You talk about food, you have packaging industry working there, having like a lot of mechatronics in it to quickly do the packaging with without like you know having any contaminations. Then there are this there is a manufacturing industry which is working to get a lot of these day to day life whatever you we use different objects and things that are manufactured by by using some kind of automation. So, this automation and mechatronics are like integral part of our day to day life and it is going to be in the future as we progress into the era of industry 4.0. Where this mechatronics has a lot of important role to play in many of the activities. Even the space exploration, aerospace, then biomedical engineering, you talk of these fields, surgeries like or health care applications. There are many many different kind of a fields where this this mechatronics systems are becoming ubiquitous. So, in this course what we are going to learn is basically integrated philosophy of thinking in electronics domain and mechanical domain together to develop and design these mechatronics systems. Let us hear some of the experiences of our of our past students who have taken this course now and now are in the different fields of their life. I am Siddharth. Find your B-Tech in Mechanical at IT Bombay. This course solidifies your intuition like no other and this is a paramount help when you design your own mechatronics systems. As we close to check, I built this two-wheel self-balancing robot. Hello, my name is Swapna and I'm a PhD student at IAT Bombay. In my experience this course has a very good blend of theory and lab work and the assignments and project work is so designed that it ensures that the knowledge gained during the course is applied to real-world relatable engineering problems. Hi, I took this course during my undergrad at IAT Bombay. Then I worked at SEDEMAC mechatronics in India. After that I pursued my master's from UC Berkeley and currently I'm working on partially autonomous vehicles in California. This course was exciting. It helped reaffirm my intentions of learning more in the mechatronics field. It's a wild course and parts of the course still come into handy while working, dealing with sensors, microprocessors, digital filtering and such things. The combined theoretical and practical exposure through the course improves understanding and helps in the retention of the course. Hoping that I'll love the course. I'm Radha Lahuti, a fourth year student from Mechanical Engineering Department at IAT Bombay. I've completed this course Design of mechatronics systems. In the course we started with exploring various devices like printers, scanner, etc. looking at their components and all and then we went ahead to look at the general design process for a mechatronics system. We also learned quite a bit of microcontroller coding which we used in the project where we had to choose an objective and then design a complete control system and implement it using hardware. So the course has both theoretical and practical aspects to it and helps gain a lot of hands-on experience with dealing with mechatronic devices.
