Mechatronics

In the oncoming years more and more devices will be produced that will help us to make heavy work light or even take work out off our hands (robotics). More and more mechatronics devices will determine our everyday lives. Household appliances are becoming intelligent, electronics improves better and easier use. All of these devices would either not exist without mechatronics or would be much more expensive. Mechatronics will also play a significant role in the development of equipment to enable distance health care for older people (health & quality for life).
