Human: Hi, I am going to start a masters thesis in mechatronic engineering soon, what is something innovative I can do? 

I like microcontrollers, I would like to do something sciency but it can't take more than month to make instruments and gather data.

That is very vague! Do you have a topic yet? Or a focus? I would start there! There’s a lot of exciting stuff you can do with micro-controllers. Can be something that measures a physical phenomenon in your house (like temperature) with an arduino to something larger where you’re measuring distance and distance of objects like how I believe roombas (the robotic vacuums) do that. It can also be used in the medical field for measuring data, I am not super knowledgeable about this, but I know some people that have done projects along those lines. There are a number of innovative projects you could undertake within the scope of mechatronics engineering and within the time constraint you've outlined. Here are a few ideas to get you started:

1. Smart Home Automation: You could design a microcontroller-based smart home automation system that integrates with existing home appliances to make your home more energy efficient. This could include controlling lighting, heating/cooling, and appliances remotely.

2. Health Monitoring: Another idea could be to design a wearable device for monitoring vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature. You could also consider incorporating AI algorithms to detect patterns and make health predictions.

3. Robotics: You could design and build a small robot that performs a specific task, such as navigating a maze or recognizing objects. You could use machine learning algorithms to improve the robot's performance over time.

4. Industrial Control: Another option would be to design a microcontroller-based control system for an industrial process, such as a manufacturing line or a chemical plant. The goal would be to improve efficiency and reduce waste.

5. Renewable Energy: You could explore microcontroller-based systems for optimizing renewable energy sources, such as solar panels or wind turbines.

These are just a few ideas to get you started. The key is to find an area of interest and build a project that aligns with your skills and interests. Good luck with your thesis! One thing you could consider is retrofitting a 3d printer with milling tools.
