ENGG 4480

The course is a follow up to the introductory mechatronics course and aims at covering advanced topics that are necessary in developing mechatronic systems. Topics include: signal conditioning and filtering for mechatronics system including advanced filters such as Kalman filters; important/advanced electronic circuits for mechatronics systems; microcontroller interfacing and programming; design and development of motion control for mechatronics systems including PLC; introduction of integrated complex mechatronics systems: concept, structure, and applications. Through a design project, students will use and apply these concepts in building a complex mechatronics system with advanced features. [Restriction(s): Non-BENG students may take a maximum of 4.00 ENGG credits.][Department(s): Department of Mechanical Engineering]
