So this might be a dumb question to ask at this point since I already got into tron, but what exactly are some applications of mechatronics...other than the usual robotics?

Hi cypher,

I'm not in Mechatronics obviously but with a quick google search I found this:

Check these out:

You could work with FPGA's im pretty sure

I'd say a good portion (if not most) Mechatronics engineers end up doing some sort of software development after graduation.

Hmm, very true, we got a few tron's @ my company doing software development
