1997 IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM'97) June 16-20, 1997, Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan
IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IES), American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (RAS), and Waseda University.
Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan (IEEJ), Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME), Society of Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE), Japan Society of Precision Engineers (JSPE), Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers (IEICE), Robotics Society of Japan (RSJ), Institute of Systems, Control, and Information Engineers (ISCIE).
AIM'97 is a unique conference where researchers, engineers and business people who are interested in the field of mechatronics gather to discuss the initiation of mechatronics as an engineering technology and a new discipline in the coming 21st century. In addition, this conference is related to the new transactions entitled "IEEE/ASME Transaction on Mechatronics". A special issue consisting of selected papers from AIM 97 will be published.
