Welcome to the first seminar in the 2008 Mechatronics road show from Design News. Our goal with these free one-day seminars is to educate and teach you about how the mechatronics approach to design can help engineers get the job done better, more quickly and at lower cost.

Top editors from Control Engineering, Test & Measurement World, EDN and Design News as well as SMU Engineering Dean Geoffrey Orsak will sum up the day's events to answer questions about where mechatronics is heading and what it means to you.

In the fall, we will examine automotive design and mechatronics in Detroit and manufacturing and
mechatronics in Chicago. So please join us for a day's worth of panels and workshops with real hands-on
education. See you in Santa Clara ... -- John Dodge, Design News editor-in-chief
