This book gathers the Proceedings of the International Conference on Mechatronics and
Intelligent Robotics (ICMIR2017) held in Kunming China on May 20-21 2017. The book covers a
total of 172 papers which have been divided into seven different sections: Intelligent Systems
Intelligent Sensors & Actuators Robotics Mechatronics Modeling & Simulation Automation &
Control and Robot Vision. ICMIR2017 provided a vital forum for discussing the latest and most
innovative ideas from both the industrial and academic worlds and for sharing best practices
in the fields of mechanical engineering mechatronics automatic control electrical
engineering finite element analysis and computational engineering. The main focus of the
conference was on promoting interaction between academia and industry allowing the free
exchange of ideas and challenges faced by these two key stakeholders and encouraging future
collaboration between the members of these groups. The proceedings cover new findings in the
following areas of research and will offer readers valuable insights: Mechatronics Intelligent
mechatronics robotics and biomimetics Novel and unconventional mechatronic systems Modeling
and control of mechatronics systems Elements structures and mechanisms of micro and nano
systems Sensors wireless sensor networks and multi-sensor data fusion Biomedical and
rehabilitation engineering prosthetics and artificial organs Artificial Intelligence (AI)
neural networks and fuzzy logic in mechatronics and robotics Industrial automation process
control and networked control systems Telerobotics Human-Computer Interaction and
Human-Robot Interaction. Robotics Artificial Intelligence Bio-inspired robotics Control
algorithms and control systems Design theories and principles Evolutional robotics Field
