In order to increase productivity, reduce production costs in various industries, as well as the development of different fields of science dealing with rehabilitation and support of disabled persons, it is necessary to simulate or replace human labor or movement with mechanical or mechatronic systems. The complexity of these systems is very large and the degree of integration of various scientific and engineering fields is high. The integration of different types of knowledge, technology and techniques requires exceptional creativity, analytical and research skills.

After completing these classes Students should be capable to integrate, in an inventive way, existing knowledge and technology, the knowledge and technologies that will emerge in the future, in systems for the substitution of human labor and simulation of human movement. One of the most important outcomes is the adoption of the way of thinking and logic in the synthesis of such systems

Principles of analysis of human movement. Techniques for use of this analysis in the integration of mechatronic systems. Existing driving systems. Basics of the synthesis of mechanisms. Sensors. Basics of an PLC. Introduction to the existing solutions, especially in the food industry.
