Home Automation Based on Arduino/WeMos/RPi Platform
Bubeníček, Daniel ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kapinus, Michal (advisor)
This thesis deals with design and implementation of home automation system based on Arduino, WeMos and Raspberry Pi platforms. Twelve modules for home automation were designed, which can be easily built on these platforms. The implemented prototype allows to control heating system and LED light, track temperature and humidity, detect newly connected Wi-Fi devices, human motion, door opening, create custom automation rules etc. The system uses pre-existing household equipment. The new hardware used in prototype cost only 1.600 CZK.

Intelligent Security Camera Based on Raspberry Pi
Vinarčík, Peter ; Španěl, Michal (referee) ; Materna, Zdeněk (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is to create Pan-Tilt-Zoom security camera which will be constructed from Raspberry Pi and camera module. Camera tries to be compliant with ONVIF standard. Software of this camera is implemented in Python and partially in Node.js. Camera module captures 200 degrees field of view. Captured image is transferred as simulation of Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera with the help of computer vision - library OpenCV for Python. The resulting image will be possible to control and watch in network video recorder called Shinobi.

Interactive Interface for Robot Remote Control for Android
Podmolík, Leopold ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Španěl, Michal (advisor)
This work describes an application to control a robot running the Robotic Operation System (ROS) remotely using Android-based touch devices. The application was primarily designed for our experimental faculty robot - TB2. Designed user interface shows a video stream coming from the Kinect mounted on the robot and the current 2D map. The robot movement is controlled by a Street View like user interface while rotation of the robot in place is solved by speci c touch gestures on display.

Wireless Control of Electronic Devices Using Mobile/Embedded Device Using WiFi
Marek, Petr ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Zemčík, Pavel (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor thesis was to design and implement an automated home system using Wi-Fi. The whole system was built on the Raspberry Pi and ESP8266 platforms, CoAP was chosen as the communication protocol. The resulting solution works in the local network and also over the Internet. It includes the use of several types of sensors and the ability to control the outputs of the ESP8266 modules. The system supports simple automation based on values of sensors and set timers.

Trully Smart Smart Socket
Valušek, Ondřej ; Zemčík, Pavel (referee) ; Materna, Zdeněk (advisor)
There is a large selection of so called smart sockets available on the market today. The possibilities of these sockets are sadly very limited. Typically, they can measure power consumption, be turned off and on remotely by mobile application and timer. This thesis deals with this problem by showing how a smart relay can be used to create a truly smart smart socket that can classify currently connected appliances using just short time window for up to three devices combined. The power consumption is measured using Shelly 1PM together for three plugs. Using time series feature extraction, unknown device detection with SVM and neural network classification, the accuracy was over 99%. on a dataset containing combinations of smart TV, lamp and a laptop consumption. Information about currently connected devices is displayed on a webpage and written to a database to be viewed later. The information about connecting and disconnecting a device can be further sent to a system for smart home management.

Human-Robot Interaction: Advanced Task-centered Interfaces for Non-Expert Users
Materna, Zdeněk ; Ao.Univ.Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.tech Markus Vincze (referee) ; Míkovec, Zdeněk (referee) ; Smrž, Pavel (advisor)
Poslední roky přinesly rostoucí trend nasazení robotů v nových aplikacích, kde se od nich očekává nejen práce vedle lidí, ale skutečná spolupráce na společných komplexních úlohách. K umožnění blízké, bohaté a přirozené interakce člověka s robotem, bude nutné podstatně rozšířit schopnosti současných robotických systémů. Dále již nebude docházet k interakci jen mezi roboty v bezpečnostních klecích a experty na jejich programování. Stále častěji budou interagovat s~bezpečnými spolupracujícími roboty uživatelé bez odborných znalostí z oblasti robotiky, s různorodým vzděláním a zkušenostmi. Úžasně složitá zařízení, kterými dnešní roboti jsou, se tak stanou ještě složitějšími, což představuje zásadní výzvu pro návrh jejich uživatelských rozhraní. Cílem této práce je zkoumat a vyvinout řešení umožňující blízkou interakci mezi neodbornými uživateli a komplexními roboty. Výzkum byl zaměřen na dvě oblasti robotiky: asistenční servisní a průmyslové spolupracující roboty. Ačkoliv se tyto dvě oblasti vyznačují odlišnými požadavky, pro návrh interakce mezi člověkem a~robotem je možné použít podobné principy. Nedostatky stávajících přístupů jsou řešeny návrhem nové metody pro úlohově zaměřenou interakci. Nejvýznamější aspekty metody jsou využití smíšené reality, autonomních funkcí robota, komunikace vnitřního stavu robota, kontextová citlivost a použití modalit vhodných pro danou úlohu. Pro obě oblasti zaměření výzkumu bylo na základě metody navrženo a implementováno uživatelské rozhraní. Obě rozhraní byla úspěšně ověřena s neodbornými uživateli, kteří díky nim byli schopni úspěšně spolupracovat s robotem na složitých úlohách. Publikovaná ověření rozhraní prokazují, že realizovaná metoda významně zlepšuje blízkou interakci mezi člověkem a robotem, která s dosavadními přístupy nebyla plně dosažitelná. Klíčové aspekty metody představují vodítko pro návrh uživatelských rozhraní v oblasti spolupracujících robotů.

Robot Interaction with Virtual Objects
Fisla, Jakub ; Španěl, Michal (referee) ; Materna, Zdeněk (advisor)
The goal of this bachelor's thesis was to create an aplication for robotic operating system ROS, adding virtual objects to data provided by the robot sensors. The theoretical part analyses the simulation techniques which combine real measured data with virtually generated data and explore equipment for data reading. The thesis designs a structure of feasible solution the application with respect to ROS platform and describes the application implementation. Finally, the focus is on testing of the application and thought about feasible extension this solution.

Design of a GUI for Home Control for the Elderly
Válek, Lukáš ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Fučík, Jan (advisor)
This work focuses on the problems with the design of software for the elderly and ways to solve them. Furthermore, a design of a control interface for smart homes, which takes these problems into account, was done. The process of the design is described and reasons for the decision that are made are given. Following is a description of the implementation of the proposed interface and its testing on a targeted group of users. The work also outlines a possible extension of the interface for further use.

Computer Application Control by Natural Head Movement
Vojvoda, Jakub ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Beran, Vítězslav (advisor)
The aim of this work is to design and implement a system that tracks user's head in the input video frames and on the basis of its position achieves interaction with computer applications. Four methods for head detection have been proposed based on computer vision techniques as face detection by Haar-like features, background detection, Camshift or Lucas-Kanade to calculate an optical flow. The individual methods have been tested on recorded and in this field used data sets, and evaluated. The implementation of the system was then used to build the demo applications.
