Design of chassis for an electric minibus
Strnadel, Bronislav ; Ramík, Pavel (referee) ; Štětina, Josef (advisor)
The theoretical part of the master thesis is devoted to electric vehicles from their history through sources of electric energy and a swapping battery system to electric buses and autonomous driving. In the practical part the concept of autonomous electric minibus with the calculation of battery capacity are described. Furthermore, the attachment of battery to chassis and the idea of automatic swap are designed. In the last chapter the design of chassis itself can be found together with the FEM analysis.

Robot for Robotour 2010
Kubát, David ; Zbořil, František (referee) ; Rozman, Jaroslav (advisor)
The objective of this master's thesis was to get acquainted with an autonomous outdoor robot competition - The Robotour and further to study the capabilities and information about a robot designed on the DITS FIT Brno VUT. Next part of the project was to study various planning and localization algorithms and to make a proposal of a functional solution, allowing the robot to participate in the competition. To be specific, the goal of this work was to use the acquired knowledge for implementation of an antonomous software so the robot can start in the year 2010 race. The solution also included several related mechanical modifications. The final solution fulfills all the competiton rules and is capable of taking part in this year's plant.

Využití robotického systému Agrointelli při různých zemědělských operacích
NĚMEC, Jiří
This thesis deals with the monitoring of the Agrointelli Robotti 150D autonomous robotic system. The device was monitored during deployment in a normal agricultural operation planting strawberries, sowing sunflowers and corn, weeding corn and sowing canola. The work includes conducting an experiment to compare the autonomous and conventional rigs in sowing canola. The paper also describes the problems found during the observation and gives suggestions for their solution.

System for Autonomous Navigation of Toy Car on a Race Track
Katrušák, Jaroslav ; Bidlo, Michal (referee) ; Šimek, Václav (advisor)
The goal of this project is the implementation of a system for autonomous control of a toy car model on a racetrack. First part of this project is a study of typical ways of laying out a racetrack for the movement of a model car and a follow-up study of possible ways of implementing the autonomous movement of the model on the racetrack. The next part is devoted to the hardware and software side of the implementation of the proposed system. The penultimate part presents the proposed system for obstacle detection, it's implementation and resulting properties. The last part of the project presents the final implementation of an autonomous model capable of independent driving on a set racetrack, reading signs and reaction to obstacle located on the track.

Docking Station for Automatic Charging of Batteries of Robot
Beran, Jan ; Janoušek, Vladimír (referee) ; Rozman, Jaroslav (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is to create a functional docking and charging system for the Trilobot robot, which is improved and modified for use in future projects as a part of this thesis. The theoretical part discusses the path planning methods, battery types and charging methods, types of docking stations and the charging method itself. Also, a robot refurbishment design is presented, which is then implemented, along with the docking station. The refurbished robot has functional control software in the ROS framework, which allows it to perform not only the task of autonomous battery charging. In this thesis, a test of the whole system is also performed and the results are evaluated.

Upward view as a sensor in mobile robotics
Musílek, Jan ; Iša, Jiří (advisor) ; Krajíček, Václav (referee)
The use of a wide spectrum of sensors is an inherent aspect of mobile robotics. This work examines nontraditional use of the camera, directed vertically upwards, as a sensor for orienting in space. It describes various objects that can be detected in the camera image, focusing on so-called points of interest, and their pairing between two images. Based on the approximate solution of a system of linear equations, we provide information on the relative and absolute position of the robot. The work provides analysis of pairs of images, differing only the robot's rotation in place over various angles. The goal was to demonstrate the possibility of substitution of the electronic compass in cases of strong electromagnetic inter ference. Data from the image analysis was compared with that from the compass, allowing determination of the accuracy of the proposed method. The result is that upward view can be indeed used as a replacement for the electronic compass. Additionally, several modifications to the images are proposed. We examine impact of these modification on the accuracy of the suggested method. Finally, attention is given to the robotic platform on which the experiments were carried out, and the results of the measurements are interpreted.
