Industrial automation and control systems have been revolutionized by the mechatronics sector’s widespread use of programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Many industries are adopting mechatronics, merging mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering to improve efficiency, accuracy, and production. This study delves into the widespread use of PLCs in mechatronics applications, covering their underlying concepts, programming methods, and seamless integration with mechatronics gadgets. The first section of the article serves as an introduction to PLCs, discussing their history, architecture, and programming languages. It highlights the benefits of using PLCs in mechatronics systems and how well they interface with other devices and parts. The fundamentals of PLC programming, including ladder logic, sequential function charts, and function block diagrams, are also covered in depth. The importance of sensors and actuators for monitoring physical variables and regulating mechanical motion is discussed in this study, which focuses on PLC-based mechatronics systems. It highlights the effective deployment of PLCs in various industrial contexts by showcasing real-world case studies, including illustrations of PLC-controlled automated assembly lines, robotic arms, and computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools. The importance of motion control in mechatronics and the role that PLC-based motion control approaches play in obtaining precise motion are discussed. In addition, the study explores human–machine interaction/PLC integration, guiding how to create intuitive user interfaces for mechatronics.
Computational Intelligence (CI) has emerged as a powerful paradigm in the field of autonomous robotics and drones, enabling the development of intelligent, adaptive, and self-learning systems. This chapter explores the application of CI techniques in autonomous robotics and drones, focusing on the utilization of Artificial Intelligence, machine learning, and swarm intelligence algorithms to enhance navigation, perception, decision-making, and collaboration capabilities. The journey starts with an introduction to autonomous robotics and drones, outlining the challenges and opportunities in developing self-sufficient systems. It then delves into the fundamentals of CI, explaining the concepts of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and swarm intelligence, and their significance in autonomous systems.
This chapter is based on a novel Arduino-based multi-featured robot. The components required are Arduino UNO, ultrasonic sensor, Bluetooth module, servomotor, and a few more hardware devices. With the ever-increasing technological advancement, it has become easier to communicate from the different places; it could be nearby, few kilometers away, or very far, thousands of kilometers away. Thus, it has come to notice that there are a few places where it is hard and dangerous to explore for the human beings. Using Arduino controller, ESP32 CAM, and few sensors, we can explore such locations. Nowadays, with the increase of population, it is hard to invigilate all the students during an examination. So, this proposed model of multi-featured robot is very useful in keeping an eye, as it can send live surveillance and also any notification if human motion is detected.
