Review:

"Simple, well organized, self explanatory, well written. Well selected sequence of topics."

"I like the use of more open-ended projects, the emphasis on low-cost components and materials, and the extensive projects in the second half of the course."

"The lab book is very straightforward. It presents a low entry barrier to setup a mechatronics lab."

"The approach and content of the labs is excellent."
