Mechatronics for Safety Security and Dependability in the New Era containsselected leading papers from the International Conference on Machine Automation2004 the work of researchers from USA Japan China and Europe. The topicscovered include manufacturing systems such as CADCAM machining and humanfactors in manufacturing robotics in relation to sensors and actuators newcontrol technology and measuring and monitoring the application of newtechnologies in connection with wireless communication human behavior analysisand welfare.Mechatronics has been rapidly developing as an important area that affects allareas of society from industrial robots automobiles electrical appliancescomputers and consumer goods etc. It also plays a role in safety recovery suchas for rescue tasks after disasters destruction of hazardous and abandonedweapons and the restoration of polluted environments.The increasing need for safe secure and dependable technology means that theadvancement of mechatronics plays an essential role in the development ofproducts and systems. This book provides an insight into developments inessential new methodologies and tools to design and to build machines toachieve this. Covers key topics in manufacturing such as machining robotics sensorsmonitoring etc. Reviews modern applications of new technologies in connection with wirelesscommunication human behavior analysis and welfare «
