The spread of this term, and of mechatronics itself, has been growing in the years, including new aspects and disciplines, like control engineering, computer engineering and communication\/information engineering.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNowadays mechatronics has a well-defined and fundamental role, in strict relation with robotics. Drawing a sharp border between mechatronics and robotics is impossible, as they share many technologies and objectives. Advanced robots could be defined as mechatronic devices equipped with a “smart brain”, but there are also up-to-date mechatronic devices, used in tight interaction with humans, that are governed by smart architectures (for example, for safety purposes).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAim of this book is to offer a wide overview of new research trends and challenges for both mechatronics and robotics, through the contribution of researchers from different institutions, providing their view on specific subjects they consider as “hot topics” in both fields, with attention to new fields of application, new challenges to the research communities and new technologies available.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe reader of this book will enjoy the various contributions, as they have been prepared with actual applications in mind, along a journey from advanced actuators and sensors to human-robot interaction, through robot control, navigation, planning and programming issues. The book presents several state-of-the-art solutions, like multiple-stage actuation to cope with conflicting specification of large motion-spans, ultra-high accuracy, model-based control for high-tech mechatronic systems, modern approaches of software systems engineering to robotics, aand humanoids for human assistance. The reader can also find new techniques in approaching the design of mechatronic systems in some possible industrial and service robotics scenarios, with a particular attention for the interaction between humans and mechanisms.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-content a-expander-partial-collapse-content\" data-expanded=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-cel-widget=\"hushpuppyUpsell_feature_div\" data-csa-c-id=\"kg9ezb-kabapw-q5u71m-qjl1qh\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-asin=\"\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"hushpuppyUpsell_feature_div\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"hushpuppyUpsell\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-feature-name=\"hushpuppyUpsell\" class=\"celwidget\" id=\"hushpuppyUpsell_feature_div\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-cel-widget=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\" data-csa-c-id=\"b7h9km-o7rohq-3cuucn-jmvjmj\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-asin=\"\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"richProductInformation\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-feature-name=\"richProductInformation\" class=\"celwidget\" id=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-cel-widget=\"rich_product_information\" data-csa-c-id=\"cea7ym-qmmoka-3p8s0d-6ok0qf\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none celwidget\" id=\"rich_product_information\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"celwidget aplus-module module-12 aplus-standard\" data-cel-widget=\"aplus-module-12\" data-csa-c-id=\"e48qwb-36wm3s-vb6e8j-pnxs9b\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"aplus-module-wrapper apm-spacing apm-floatnone apm-fixed-width\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"apm-sidemodule aplus-module-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cb\u003eBOOKREAD™ 5-STEP SATISFACTION GUARANTEE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1. No Risk, 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee. \u003cbr\u003e2. instant download.
