Optomechatronics: Fusion of Optical and Mechatronic Engineering

by Hyungsuck Cho

Overview

Optomechatronics: Fusion of Optical and Mechatronic Engineering takes an integrated approach to combine the fields of optical and mechatronics engineering. The author provides a multidisciplinary view from the design stage of engineering systems that result from the fusion of optical elements with mechatronic elements. He explores how the integration of optomechatronic components can create new value and functions for the engineering systems under consideration. In the final section, practical optomechatronic systems are richly illustrated to aid readers in understanding how effectively optomechatronic technology can be utilized to produce new functionalities and enhance performance.
