• Mechatronics describes the sensible interplay of mechanics, electronics and IT. Even today's products are inconceivable without the intermeshing of these once separate disciplines. 
  • Various examples of such products and solutions can be found in the automotive sector (safety concepts around the airbag, ABS and various stability programs).
  • Other branches of the industry also benefit from the miniaturization possibilities of modern technology. So-called embedded systems, i.e. systems that solve sensor and actuator tasks with the built-in intelligence in the form of appropriately programmed microcontrollers, are increasingly being used.
