What are some diverse groups with different perspectives on mechatronic and automated systems?

Back

Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples, culturally diverse people, linguistically diverse people, people of different ages, people of different genders, and people with disability.

Front

Why is it important to obtain permissions and follow protocols when capturing images, voice, or video of Aboriginal peoples?

Front

What considerations must a company owning Automatic Vehicles (AVs) make when accessing native title land?

Back

They must obtain consent from traditional owners, consider cultural heritage, environmental impact, economic benefit, and data and privacy protection.

Front

How can mechatronics support people with disabilities?

Back

Mechatronics can support people with disabilities through technologies like autonomous transport and robotic prosthetics, which provide independence and improve mobility.

Front

What are autonomous transport systems?

Back

Autonomous transport systems, or self-driving vehicles, navigate and operate without human input, providing safe and efficient transportation.

Front

What are robotic prosthetics and how do they assist people?

Back

Robotic prosthetics replace or augment human limbs, controlled by myoelectric signals, muscle signals, or brain-computer interface, providing increased mobility and independence.
