Questions

1.1 What is mechatronics?

Mechatronics is the field of study concerned with the design, selection, analysis and
control of systems that combine mechanical elements with electronic components as
well as computers and/or microcontrollers. Mechatronics topics involve elements
from mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science, and the
subject matter is directly related to advancements in computer technology.

1.2 What are the elements of a mechatronic system?

The elements include mechanical system, sensors, actuators, controller, drive circuits,
and signal conditioning devices, but not all of these elements need to be present.

1.3 How are mechatronic systems implemented?

They are implemented using a PC or a microcontroller as the control element.


Problems

P1.1
a. Anti-lock braking

An Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) relies on a network of sensors and actuators to
keep the wheels from locking up during braking, which helps maintain control and
stability. The key sensors are the wheel speed sensors that track how fast each wheel
is rotating and relay this information to the ABS control unit. Some systems also use
brake pedal sensors to measure the driver's braking force. The actuators in an ABS
include hydraulic valves and a pump. The hydraulic valves adjust the brake pressure
applied to each wheel based on the control unit's instructions, either by releasing,
holding, or increasing the pressure. The pump then restores pressure to the brakes
after the valves reduce it.

b. Door locks

A powered door lock has electronic circuits to process the lock/unlock signals from
keys and an electric actuator to move the lock. The actuator consists of a small DC

, motor connected through a system of gears to a rack which converts the rotational
motion of the motor into a linear motion of the rack to move the lock up and down.

c. Powered side mirrors

A powered side mirror has two actuators to rotate the mirror about two axes. It has
also sensors to detect the position of the mirror. Some mirrors are also equipped with
a heating element to remove snow and ice from mirror.


P1.2

a. Modern washing machine

Electronic control circuit, control switches and knobs, a 110 or 220 volts electric
motor with transmission elements to rotate the drum, solenoids to control the flow of
water, an electric pump to empty the water from the drum, a door closure sensor,
water level and temperature sensors, a balance detection sensor for the drum, a sensor
for soiled water (in some models), a timer, and a heater (in some models) to heat the
water. Some newer models have sensors that measure the weight of the clothes.

b. Servo-driven industrial robot

Brushless DC motors, incremental or absolute encoders, proximity limit switches,
control circuit, teach pendant, servo amplifiers, controller, and digital I/O modules.
Many robots are also equipped with additional application-specific sensors such as
vision and force sensors.

c. Automated entry door

Non-contact traffic flow sensors, drive motor with transmission elements, control and
motor drive circuits, end of travel limit sensors, and in-door obstacle detection
sensors.


P1.3

Sensors that are used in autonomous vehicles include:

• Lidar (Light Detection and Ranging): Measures distance by illuminating targets
with laser light and measuring the reflection to create precise 3D maps.
• Cameras: Capture visual data for object recognition, lane detection, and traffic sign
reading.
