How Robotics Impacts Design Disciplines

Mechatronics Engineering

Mechatronic systems are essential to the creation of robots, and the technology has been successfully applied to airbags, anti-skid braking systems, photocopiers, CD machines, driving simulators, and ticket vending machines. The Mechatronics Engineering program, also known as Mechatronics, allows you to master robotic motion systems, sensing and actuator technology, and more. The courses offered in this program can be considered fundamental and must be mastered in order to make robots.

2. Mechanical Design and Manufacturing and Automation

Isn't it a bit confusing to see this long name of the major? In short, the purpose of this major is to design intelligent products. It integrates computer science, information technology and automatic control technology into mechanical manufacturing, and uses advanced design and manufacturing technology to realize the constant intelligence of products. This profession to promote the forward development of robotics technology and "anthropomorphism" has a very key role.

3. Electrical engineering and automation

From the name of the program, it can be seen that it focuses on electronic and electrical systems. Manufacturing robots can not be separated from the power electronics and network control system, to scientifically design a reasonable robot power supply system, the need for precise cooperation of the circuit. At the same time, the transmission of robot power and power system protection and control are closely related to this specialty.

4. Computer control technology

The main purpose of learning computer control technology is to design the program and control system required by the robot, which controls the core part of the highly intelligent robot - "brain". The hardware of the brain is the central processor, which is the control system. Robot design can not be separated from the programming, when set up the program you want, the robot will be able to work according to your instructions. Therefore, it is even more important to be skilled in computer control technology.
