The word "Mechatronics" refers to an engineering field which was founded in Japan and has rapidly developed over the last few years. Many attempts have been made to explain Mechatronics through graphical diagrams and definitions. in this paper, a review and analysis of figures for the definition of Mechatronics are presented. Many of these graphical descriptions and statements are elementary and informative, but fail to explain Mechatronics clearly and accurately. To give an overview certain definitions are discussed and explained. Finally a new figure for describing Mechatronics is introduced. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
