Course content
Mechatronics is Japanese-made English that combines mechanism and electronics. However, nowadays, it is used all over the world as a term that refers to machines with brains such as computers, and by extension, the entire technology. In the class, you will learn the basics of each elemental technology that is the basis of mechatronics, and take a bird's-eye view of the entire technology.
Purpose of class
Understand each element used in mechatronics and combine them to build a mechatronics system. Furthermore, the purpose is to create a program and be able to run it.
Goals and objectives
  1. Understand sequence control by electromagnetic relay
  2. Understand PLC control by LD (ladder diagram) and ST (structured text)
  3. Understand control and communication in C language
  4. Understand control and communication in Java language
  5. Understand control and communication in Kotlin language
