  • Abstract
    The term "mechatronics" is defined to provide a framework for technical and practical considerations. Within this framework, the importance of "intimate and organic" integration in mechatronics product designs is raised. Several issues pertaining to attaining this ideal integration of mechanical, electronic controls, and system engineering in mechatronics product designs are cited. To further advance the current mechatronics products, areas of improvement are also presented.
