Мехатроника и современные технологии

Mechatronics is a new field of science and technology dedicated to the creation and systems with computer control of motion, which is based on knowledge in microprocessor technology, computer science and computer control.

The term “mechatronics” appeared in 1969 in Japan, where the development of precision electric for programmed machine tools and working centers was actively carried out. The author of the term, Tethuro Moria is a senior engineer at “Yakawa electric”.

COMPONENTS OF MECHATRONICS

AREAS OF APPLICATION MECHATRONICS SYSTEM

automotive industry (autopilots, automatic parking system, etc.);
3D printers;
new generation vehicles (drones, electric bicycles, wheelchairs, segways, etc.);
office equipment (copiers, fax machines);
technological lines for the food industry;
printing machines;
consumer electronics (washing machines, dishwashers, sewing machines, etc.)
photo and video equipment;
medical equipment;
simulator for training operators, pilots etc.

EXOSCELETON

The exosceleton can be used for rehabilitation after spinal cord injury or traumatic brain injury, providing weak muscles with the extra support they need to move and heal injuries. Exoskeletons work by using a combination of preset movements, however, new developments are already underway with the development of neural interfaces.

SURGICAL ROBOT DA VINCHI

MEDICAL CHIPS

The Internet of Things is also changing medicine. Miniature sensors installed on human vital organs allow remote diagnostics of health, compile statistics and forget about queues at the hospital.

ECOROBOTICS

Lightweight autonomous robots for weeding crops. Ecorobotix field robot.
Functions: Robotic platform for weeding crops, including advanced algorithms for weed recognition, fast "hands", advanced sensor technology, wireless communication. Moreover, Ecoroboticx demonstrates high energy efficiency.

ROLL-UP TVS

LG has developed a prototype TV that can be rolled like a roll of paper.
The TV uses polymer-based LED technology to reduce the thickness of the screen.
Besides LG, other major electronics manufacturers such as Samsung, Sony and Mitsubishi are working to make screens more flexible and portable.

ARTIFICIAL LEAVES THAT CONVERT CARBON DIOXIDE AND SUNLIGHT INTO FUEL

These solar cells use carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to produce syngas, a mixture of hydrogen gas and carbon monoxide that can be directly burned or converted to hydrocarbon fuels.
