Abstract
TCS is a UK Government scheme in which 2-year innovation projects are implemented by teams comprising senior staff from a company and from a higher education institution or research organisation, as well as graduates (TCS Associates).This article describes a TCS Programme between the Mechatronics Research Centre at Loughborough University and Feedback Instruments Ltd. The objective of the work was the mechatronics workbench, a concept for a range of didactic equipment facilitating the teaching and training of mechatronics principles in industry and in further and higher education institutions on a global scale
