Sega Mechatronics R&D Department (セガメカトロ研究開発部), casually known as Sega Mechatronics, Mechatronics or Mechatro was a research and development department of Sega, created in 1999.

Mechatronics replaced Sega AM4 and Sega AM6 in 1999, though continued AM4's role in developing physical arcade cabinets for AMs 1-3 to house games in. Unlike AM4, Mechatronics largely went uncredited for its work.

It continued it's role as Product R&D in October of 2009.
