Mechatronics introduces students to the construction and programming of robots to perform simple tasks such as line following, searching and retrieving, and data logging. Students undertake a variety of projects that range from completing a series of simple tasks to solving complex problem-based scenarios. Designs focus on functionality and ergonomics within the environment. Through their projects, students will learn the importance of utilising various types of sensors to create intelligent mechanical devices.
