Abstract :
In the future, we need a new production system (e.g., robot system) releasing workers from dirty and dangerous work environments. Currently, many organizations are trying to develop new safety regulation for robots in the human environment. If the regulation are established, more and more robots will be introduced in our living environments. The future research subject of the mechatronics system will be on the nanoscale control system, which involves biomedical applications. By combining multisensor fusion technology, the performance of mechatronic and robotics systems and the derived applications can be enhanced and extended soon.
