Learning outcomes
|
The subject introduces the students to the basic concepts of the mechatronics. It deals with the principles of basic functional blocks of mechatronic systems and their design options.
In this subject, there will be given the both theoretical overview and practical experience in the area of design and implementation of the mechatronic systems. Students learn to identify the individual parts of such systems and measure their basic characteristics. Students will also learn important aspects of the design of mechatronic systems, including both hardware and software design of the control subsystem as well.
