Mechatronics @ Piezoelectric and Arduino

Mechatronics is a multi dimensional branch of engineering that deals with various automation problem related to sensor and actuator. Piezoelectric is such material which works as both sensor and actuator.

 Piezoelectric Sensor:

 To acquire sensor data we need a acquisition device and Arduino is one of of the device that can acquire large data and plot it in continuous mode.


Piezoelectric Actuator:

To drive piezoelectric we need a controller and we know that Arduino is one the best open source controller based on Atmega 328 micro controller. Arduino can generate any type of signal to actuate Piezoelectric.
