Mechatroonilised
Mechatroonilised is a term used to describe a class of systems that integrate mechanical engineering, electronic control, and cognitive processing to perform complex tasks autonomously. The concept extends traditional mechatronics by explicitly incorporating neural-inspired computation and adaptive behavior, enabling devices to sense, reason about, and respond to changing environments. The word blends "mechatroonika" (mechatronics) with the Estonian suffix -ilised, indicating a category or style in technical usage.
Key characteristics include multidisciplinary integration of mechanical, electrical, and software subsystems; embedded sensors and actuators; distributed
Applications span industrial automation, robotics, medical devices, automotive and aerospace systems, and consumer electronics where autonomous
Development and status: The concept emerged as a formal extension of mechatronics with advances in AI, machine
