Biomechatronics is a rapidly evolving interdisciplinary field that merges with mechatronics (mechanical, electronic, computer, and control engineering) . Its primary mission is to develop devices that interact seamlessly with the human musculoskeletal and nervous systems to assist, restore, or enhance physical capabilities. Core Components of Biomechatronic Systems
While often associated with limb replacement, biomechatronics spans a wide range of human-machine integration: Introduction to Biomechatronics | IET Digital Library Introduction to Biomechatronics
: Measure external variables like force, load, and limb position (e.g., accelerometers and force meters). and limb position (e.g.
: The "artificial muscles" (typically motors or pneumatic systems) that produce the physical force or motion. Major Application Areas Introduction to Biomechatronics
