Quadrotor 3D Intuitive Flying
Husák, Robert ; Plch, Tomáš (advisor) ; Obdržálek, David (referee)
The Rotor-based Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (R-UAV) is a robotic aerial plat- form capable of Vertical Take-Off and Landing. It is commonly controlled by a "two stick" interface common to radio controlled models of ships and airplanes. However, this method of control proves to be difficult to learn and master in the domain of R-UAV. Therefore, we examined other control devices: smartphone, gamepad, joystick, 3DConnection SpaceNavigator and Novint Falcon. They were used by 19 volunteers to perform two simple navigation scenarios with AR.Drone, a small R-UAV from Parrot. We separated the pilots into two groups, based on their experience with the R-UAV remote control. We measured the time needed for each device to fulfill every task, including the number of unwanted collisions with obstacles, as well as the pilot's satisfaction with it. According to the results of the experiment, joystick and smartphone proved to be less intuitive and effec- tive among all pilots, especially the inexperienced. Gamepad seemed to be most usable for experienced pilots, although the inexperienced had problems distribut- ing control between two hands, as we expected. 3DConnexion, SpaceNavigator and Novint Falcon were rated the best devices for inexperienced users.

An external user interface with USB
Sládeček, Michal ; Ambrož, Jaromír (referee) ; Hejátková, Edita (advisor)
This work elaborates on development of simple user interface module which can communicate with host system via USB. Existing alternatives for this kind of device are described first, followed by basic theory of USB communication. Goal of the thesis is the selection of hardware parts , electrical and mechanical design of the device and implementation of the software library. The result of this work is functional device prototype complemented by fully-featured software library.

Adaptible Joystick Interpret for RDS
Erben, Vojtěch ; Burian, František (referee) ; Honzík, Petr (advisor)
The main subjects of this bachelor thesis are proposal and implementation of control adaptation on concrete user. Adaptation is achieved by proposed adaptable interpreter, which changes joystick behavior using conversion function. Parameters of the conversion function are set by evolution algorithm based on recent drive through given path. The development environment Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio (MRDS) is described in the introduction including instructions for creating a simple project. Furthermore, there is analyzed way of work with joystick and adjustments to his behavior. Follows description of way of programming in MRDS, concerning getting robot object from simulation and its automatic driving. Next part of this work describes proposal and implementation of adaptable joystick interpreter. There is proposed equation of the conversion function used in this interpreter and described the way of setting its parameters. Last part describes methods of testing and test results.

Robotic Manipulator Controlling Using Microcontroller
Lengyel, Kristián ; Strnadel, Josef (referee) ; Růžička, Richard (advisor)
This thesis deals with design and implementation of an algorithm for operating the servomechanism of robotic manipulator. In first phase it was necessary to attach the robotic manipulator ROB 1-3 and common joystick to HC08 microcontroller from Motorola Corp., which is also used in our school laboratories. In second phase I have designed and implemented the program for MC68HC908LJ12 microcontroller using C programming language and Freescale CodeWarrior development studio. The task of this program was to convert signals received from joystick to commands for servo motors.

Robotic Rover Controlled with Using the Arduino Platform
Čechmánek, Martin ; Luža, Radim (referee) ; Samek, Jan (advisor)
The goal of this bachelor's thesis is to introduce options of wireless robots control with using Arduino platform and describe preferences, options and use of this platform. In this thesis is implemented duplex wireless transfer between modules with XBee modules. Practical part of thesis consists of 2 parts - control module and robotic rover module. Control module is used for controling the other module and it contains display, signal and control parts. Rover module, which is based on SRV-1 robot, contains ultrasonic sensors for distance measuring between rover and barrier around its place, and LED light ramp for lighting places out of the current direction of movement.

Robotic Manipulator Controlling Using Microcontroller
Zemánek, Martin ; Škarvada, Jaroslav (referee) ; Růžička, Richard (advisor)
This master's thesis deals with control robotic manipulator ROB 1-3 using common joystick and microcontroller HC08 NITRON or HC08 LJ12. The goal of this work was creation of module for controlling axes position of servos included in robot by analog signal coming from connected joystick. There are formed possible suggestions about connecting individual parts together for both autonomous and version using development kit. Programming code suggestion is based on these connections during further development. The limitations of using it are described in analysis and final results are shown in statistics results.

Design of agricultural cutting machine
Hráček, Petr ; Chorý, Tomáš (referee) ; Zvonek, Miroslav (advisor)
This diploma thesis should bring not only working machine into the branch of agricultural industry, but also new approach to design. Obviously, the contribution of technical innovations, which are required in this segment, is concerned, too. All knowledge and concepts come from the practise of this field. The project partly takes up the pre-diploma thesis called Vision of the agricultural cutting machine with container arrangement and shares some details of the concept as such. The technical part was solved during the winter term within the scope of the subject Machines and equipment. From this project will be adopted all bases of constructional innovations of agricultural machine concept.
