  • CANopen
    CANopen is a communication protocol and device profile specification for embedded systems used in automation.
  • Mechatronics
    Mechatronics is a multidisciplinary field of science that includes a combination of mechanical engineering, electronics, computer engineering, telecommunications engineering, systems engineering and control engineering.
  • Process control
    Process control is an engineering discipline that deals with architectures, mechanisms and algorithms for maintaining the output of a specific process within a desired range.
  • TANGO
    The TANGO control system is a free open source device-oriented controls toolkit for controlling any kind of hardware or software and building SCADA systems.
