The MechatronicSystems.Group (MS.G) is a research group that is based in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, at the University of Cape Town in South Africa.

Established in 2022, the MS.G focuses on the modelling, design and realisation of complex mechatronic systems. The electromechanical nature of these systems requires an intimate knowledge of integrating hardware (mechanical and electrical), software and control systems in order to develop a system into a cohesive whole.
