Ground Vehicle Control by User Gestures
Chlud, Michal ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Beran, Vítězslav (advisor)
This bachelor's work is focused on basic methods leading to successful gesture recognition in video sequence using standard RGB camera. Key steps required for hand classification are described, mainly segmentation of input video based on skin color model. Next there are discussed methods for object tracking and gesture analysis. Main goal of this work is to demonstrate this knowledge by creating application which controls robot's movement by hand gesture analysis. Solution is proposed and individual implementation steps are described.

Wearable Devices: Possibilities of Using and Applications
Herec, Jan ; Luža, Radim (referee) ; Samek, Jan (advisor)
This thesis focuses on wearable devices that are currently actual topic. It presents their history, communication methods and capabilities of application. It further describes created solution that demonstrates the application of wearable devices for controlling a robot. The solution consists of a wearable device named Myo armband, an Android application and a robot on the platform ROS (Robot operating system). A Myo armband has a form of a bracelet that is placed on a forearm and contains sensors such as a magnetometer, a gyroscope, an accelerometer and an EMG (electromyographic sensors for sensing muscle activity on which base certain gestures are recognized). The application is designed for controlling a mobile robot capable of moving forward, backward and veer based on gestures and movements of a hand on which a Myo armband is attached. For this purpose, the application reads the relevant data from a wearable device using Bluetooth LE (Low Energy), then evaluates them and sends control messages via Wi-Fi technology to a robot. The description of a robot is discussed in more detail further below. The usage of the application (which is the main contribution of the author) and a Myo armband enable to control a set of mobile robots driven by the Robotic operating system (ROS).

Web Portal for Ground Robot Management
Tichý, Andrej ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Beran, Vítězslav (advisor)
This work deals with the creation of a web portal for administration and management of ground robots at the Faculty of Information Technology in Brno. The main aim of this work is the design and implementation of the application, which, thanks to robotic platform Robot Operating System administers and manages land robots. Maps are stored in SVG format and spracúváva their library Raphael.js. When the work was created node in Python to control the robot in the Robot Operating System. In conclusion I graded the test user satisfaction with a graphical user interface and summarized the pros and cons of the application.
