Electro mechanical engineering The word appliance has several different areas of meaning, all usually referring to a device with a narrow function: ...more on Wikipedia about "Appliance"
A machine is any mechanical or organic device that transmits or modifies energy to perform or assist in the performance of tasks. It normally requires some energy source ("input") and accomplishes some sort of work. ...more on Wikipedia about "Machine"
A major appliance is a large machine which accomplishes some routine housekeeping task, which includes purposes such as cooking, food preservation, or cleaning, whether in a household, institutional, commercial or industrial setting. An appliance is differentiated from a plumbing fixture because it uses an energy input for its operation other than water (generally, electricity). ...more on Wikipedia about "Major appliance"
Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of mechanical engineering ("mecha" for mechanisms), electronic engineering ("tronics" for electronics), and software engineering. The purpose of this interdisciplinary engineering field is the study of automata from an engineering perspective and serves the purposes of controlling advanced hybrid systems. ...more on Wikipedia about "Mechatronics"
A microwave oven, (or microwave), is a kitchen appliance employing microwave radiation primarily to cook or heat food. ...more on Wikipedia about "Microwave oven"
A rotary encoder, also called a shaft encoder, is a digital electronic device used to convert the angular position of a shaft or axle to a digital code. These devices are used in robotics, in top-of-the-line photographic lenses, in computer input devices (such as optomechanical mice and trackballs), and in rotating radar platforms. ...more on Wikipedia about "Rotary encoder"
A water cooler is a device that cools and dispenses water. ...more on Wikipedia about "Water cooler"
A wind turbine is a machine for converting the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as a pump or grinding stones, the machine is usually called a windmill. If the mechanical energy is then converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator. ...more on Wikipedia about "Wind turbine"
