Iron Man for sureeeee

[@AjayiGodwin-uw2nw]

Cool

[@timothysands5537]

As a senior in mechanical engineering taking a robotics course with forward and inverse kinematics, I can say it is worth it. The main reasons for me are: 1. I can design, build, program, and play with robots for any reason I like 2. I feel like I can build almost anything with enough time and resources (I don't feel limited) 3. The pay is fantastic 4. You don't need to be brilliant, just a very well organized and hard working individual. The downsides are: 1. Lots and lots of math 2. Overwhelming course loads; everyone around you will be sacrificing either their sleep or social life to keep up with the work load from all their classes. But this naturally creates groups of people who work together to learn more efficiently and lighten the work load. 3. Your physical health will suffer if you do not set aside time for some physical exercise, which will in turn lower your energy levels and ultimately crush your ability to sustain high mental work loads. Life is a balancing act.

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Figuring out the "balancing act" is a super underrated part of engineering university. Once you find how to excel in your classes and extracurriculars while also keeping your mental space stable (friends, exercise, etc.), you're golden 👍 Thanks for adding your perspective! Greatly appreciate that Timothy 🙂

Hi..can u help me..pls ..pls..pls..

[@rainasajid6678]

As a recent Mechanical Engineering graduate who wants to explore Mechatronics engineering, this video was a great insight into the field.

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Glad you liked it! 😃

[@alexanderokak5112]

Criminally underrated video. Studying mechatronics myself, procrastinating finishing my final technical report on a robot! If any aspiring engineers read this, lemme tell you there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. It took me an inhuman effort to get through years 1 and 2, but when we finally start making designs in year 3 (despite it being even HARDER than the exams), the projects are so fun that it makes me excited to work all the time. But report writing blows :/

[@operatornaut8534]

Starting out this path with an Associate in applied science - Mechatronics Engineer. Since its an associates its a little less of a work load but easier to digest. Gives me breathing room you could say if I continue down the path.

[@Ayeeditya]

This is such a great overview of what its like being in the field!

[@sora-rh2ld]

Your clip gave me a very good insight into a specialty that I had many questions about, so thank you. But I have one question that bothers me: Does a person need to be a “genius” in order to innovate in this field? Because I feel like if I wasn't , it would be impossible for me to achieve anything. I would like a realistic answer, please.

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Thanks for the comment! The answer is no! Most people are not. As a young engineer you get a lot of help from the more senior engineers and as you get more experienced you naturally become more comfortable and useful in the field. Most engineers are smart, very few are geniuses!

[@SaniyaGhodasara]

Can a mechatronics engineer pursue automobile manufacturing or there is only robotics?

Dislikes are come from mechatronic engineer that try to making arm whichs pressing dislike button

[@trungthebigguy7084]

Hi, i am a Mechatronic engineering technology student in an university and i have some questions: Do i have to be good at math? I signed up this course because of my fashion of building stuffs and machines but i am kinda bad at math. I am good at chemistry and biology more ( my physics is also good) And is it good for me to choose my major because of my fashion more than subjects that i am good at?

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Hello! Good at math depends. You definitely need to get through hard math classes. Some are more naturals but some need to work harder. As long as you can work really hard and try hard, you’ll be just fine. Ideally you want something you’re good at AND love, but you should really go for something you love. Because you can always learn to get better at something.

[@Neustroangel]

I’m interested in studying mechatronics, but many colleges don’t offer it in the US. If you had to choose between mechanical, electrical, or computer engineering, which one would be closer to mechatronics?

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Great question. The answer really depends on your personal preference and what your universities offer. What is your favorite out of the three? If it is electrical or computer, make sure to mechanical electives. If it is mechanical, make sure to take programming and circuits electives. Some schools will not even have mechanical courses or vice versa, so in those cases you would have to take the closest major you can and do projects/club work/ similar to fill the wholes in missing experience. Cheers

[@deven6703]

Yo I’m a senior mechanical engineer student. I’d say go mechanical because you’ll get to experience circuits and microelectronics while learning mechanical engineering. But like he stated already, check your schools curriculum for each degree and make a decision based on that.

[@hassanabdur-rahman1559]

I would say go for mechanical engineering but take additional classes in electrical engineering and programming classes. For Electrical 1. Electrical Circuits 1 and 2 2. Electronics 1 and 2 3. Digital Logic 4. Microcontrollers For Computer Science 1. C plus plus 2.Python 3. Vera Log 4. Computer Architecture

[@gamingprox1577]

I'm currently still in highschool and am looking to study mechatronics. What should i do to get a headstart and excell before i reach uni?

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Sorry for the late response! We have a number of resource for you. First, we have a discord (discord.gg/dc5kUKSVj7) where you get as many questions answered as you want. Second, since mechatronics is mechanical, electrical, and software, we recommend getting started with these. A great goal would be to program an arduino (microcontroller) to accomplish different mechanical goals. This can be accomplished with this arduino kit (amzn.to/44IzvE8). We'd be happy to help you learn how to use this in the discord 🙂 If you're not interested in this option let us know in the discord and we can find something else that can work for you! Happy you're getting into engineering my friend. Talk to you soon!

[@vedantpatil342]

Learn Arduino UNO from mc whorter just search his name on youtube

[@ravson8488]

Sorry for beeing late to respond. I am studing mechatronics (Not in the US, but i pretty much agree with the Video). In Order to gain a Headstart i highly recomend the Arduino Microcontroller. It teaches you in beginnerfreindly ways the groundworks of Programming and electronics, is easy to implement and can be scaled up to very complex Projects. The Original Ardoinos are rather expensive, but there are tons of Clones on the Market and they all work great (I only have one Original Arduino Controller and that was gifted to me) because the whole Arduino Projcet is Open Source and was based on the Atmega,. This Year however, Ardiono anounced a new Model which is up to scale witch current Industry-used-Microcontrollers. You can start to programm in the Userfreinly Arduino IDE and controll LEDs (small Lamps), Motors a lot of Sensors and a bunch more stuff. And the best part is, you can find most of the tutorials on the Internet for free!

bro why didn't you reply the question about AI being mentioned why is there nothing on what is going to lead the future talked about in this course

[@decade5442]

Hi! I wanted to ask if its a good idea to major in mechatronics and after that do a master in ai engineering. Thanks

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Hello there! Thanks for the comment :) This is an interesting combination that I haven’t thought of before. So without looking into it, take my message with a grain of salt. Mechatronics generally isn’t known for strong core software skills, but I bet you can find a university that would let you take a number of software courses as electives alongside the normal mechatronics ones. So that you’re not pulling your hair out when trying to learn the software skills necessary for the AI masters program. The other thing I’ll say is that from my perspective it’s uncharted territory bc not many take that path and AI is rapidly evolving. Also, the actual concepts and practices learned for each topic don’t have a ton of overlap. BUT we have no firm idea where AI is going to take us and how it will ultimately affect the engineering landscape, so there is a factor of uncertainty there that could go in your favor or against it. So I’d say to outline what you want to do with both of those skill sets, and if you’re confident there is a market for it, go for it. OR if you’re just absolutely in love with the two subjects, it still could be very worth it to go for it. Whether it is a good idea or not is totally up to the student 👍 Hope this helps!

[@decade5442]

@@EngineeringInsiders thanks !

[@decade5442]

@@EngineeringInsiders and one more little question, what would you recommend me if its not AI engineering

[@EngineeringInsiders]

No problem! I recommend digging into mechatronics curriculum, looking at different course loads and seeing which parts of the degree are the most interesting to you. Make sure to check out other degrees too!) Whatever you find the most interesting you should explore with projects and research, that’ll lead you to your most successful path 👍

[@skylartaylor4069]

what about mechatronics engineering with artificial intelligence the two degree together

[@Therdxteam]

What career in mechatronic engineering

[@EngineeringInsiders]

There are a ton of careers! The most common are robotics, manufacturing, and embedded systems but these have a lot of different careers in themselves. But mechatronics touches on computer, mechanical, and electrical so there are ultimately ton of possibilities - more than the average engineering path 👍

[@EngineeringInsiders]

Hello! Depends on what type of weapon design you're looking for - but most likely you're looking for mechanical or aerospace, potentially electrical. Because Mechatronics is a mix of electrical and mechanical, it could work! But most larger defense weapon systems require the whole shabang - software, electrical, mechanical, and all of the many many subfields. Not sure what your intentions are but make sure to be safe! 👍
