[b]Objectives:[/b]
1. Tackle challenges in human-mechatronic systems design interdisciplinary.
2. Use engineering methods for modeling, design, and control in human-mechatronic systems development.
3. Apply methods from psychology (perception, experience), biomechanics (motion and human models), and engineering (design methodology) and interpret their results.
4. Develop mechatronic and robotic systems that are provide user-oriented interaction characteristics in addition to efficient and reliable operation.
