The purpose of this biennial IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM), following the footsteps of the previous four editions in Tokyo, Japan (1997), Atlanta, USA (1999), Como, Italy (2001) and Port Island, Japan (2003), is to promote activities in various areas of mechatronics by providing a forum for exchange of ideas, presentation of technical achievements, and discussion of future directions.  The conference is returning to the USA for the second time.

The word mechatronics is defined as the synergistic integration of precision mechanical engineering with advanced electronics and computer control in the design and manufacture of intelligent products and processes. Since the basic concept of mechatronics is quite general, it has found a wide variety of applications and systems ranging from automation, biomedical, cars, data-storage devices, fuel cell, home appliances, intelligent highways, manufacturing, robotics, and space vehicle.

Intelligent Mechatronics in Micro/Nano Technologies

Papers describing original work on abstractions, algorithms, theories, methodologies, and case studies in the area of mechatronics are invited for presentation in the conference.
