In engineering, optomechatronics is a field that investigates the integration of optical components and technology into mechatronic systems.[1] The optical components in these systems are used as sensors to measure mechanical quantities such as surface structure and orientation.[2] Optical sensors are used in a feedback loop as part of control systems for mechatronic devices.[3] Optomechatronics has applications in areas such as adaptive optics, vehicular automation, optofluidics, optical tweezers and thin-film technology.[4]
