Mobile Autonomous Robot Twente, a mechatronics design approach

Abstract

The main question of this thesis is how the different skills and disciplines involved can be combined to fully exploit the potential of a mechatronics design approach. The choice made was to gain experience in the field of mechatronics design by developing a technical system of high complexity, which requires optimum performance of the participating disciplines to fulfil the pre-set specifications. The key to the success of this development is the extent to which the disciplines involved are able to collaborate.
