Design and realization of odometry sensors for mobile robot with Ackermann steering
Porteš, Petr ; Věchet, Stanislav (referee) ; Hrbáček, Jan (advisor)
Aim of this thesis is to design and construct odometric sensors for a mobile robot with Ackermann steering Bender 2 and to design a mathematical model which would evaluate the the trajectory of the robot using measured data of these sensors. The first part summarizes theoretical knowledge, while the second, the practical part, describes the design of the front axle, the design and the operating software of the front encoders and the odometric models. The last part deals with the processing and evaluation of the measured data.

Optimum layout of pressing line for the production of reflectors at Automotive Lighting
Šťastný, Michal ; Hrbáček, Jan (referee) ; Kubík, Roman (advisor)
This thesis deals with optimization of a press line part for the manufacture of reflectors present at the Automotive Lighting Company, Jihlava. The first part focuses on describing the current workplace layout of the press line. The workplaces are located inconveniently and thus require a larger number of operators and a considerable amount of manual work. The second part of the thesis proposes layout solutions for the injection presses and for other machine parts. At the same time, a smoother transition design is proposed for the press line and for the manufacturing section that follows. Based on an evaluation of selected criteria, the optimum version is chosen, thereby adding to the efficiency of the molding process by reducing the number of operators required, by lowering the proportion of manual work relative to other activities, and by limiting the risk of poor quality. The conclusion of the thesis sums up the necessary investment costs and offers an economic assessment of introducing the selected press line arrangement to operation.

Measuring unit for race swimmers motion analysis
Kumpán, Pavel ; Hrbáček, Jan (referee) ; Krejsa, Jiří (advisor)
The master’s thesis deals with a design of the computational method for the analysis of swimmers training with the use of an inertial measurement unit. The developed algorithm uses quaternion-based Unscented Kalman filter and merges accelerometer and gyroscope measurements. The proposed method enables analysis of velocity, acceleration and inclination of a swimmer. Verification of the method was based on an underwater video camera capturing and a tethered velocity meter.

Modeling and simulation of robust control algorithms for BLDC motors
Smilek, Jan ; Hrbáček, Jan (referee) ; Toman, Jiří (advisor)
This thesis focuses on developing algorithms for brushless AC motor control. First part of the thesis contains derivation of mathematical model and overview of selected sensor and sensorless control methods. Second part introduces simulation model of the motor, developed in Matlab/Simulink environment, with usage of SimPowerSystems toolbox. Following chapter describes realization of control algorithm, utilizing Hall sensors and position estimation. After that, sensorless rotor position estimation module is developed, and its implementation into the model is mentioned. Last chapters deal with development of graphical user interface, meant for changing selected motor and control parameters, and they also summarize and compare achieved results.

Single purpose machine for automotive parts assembly
Trávníček, Ivo ; Hrbáček, Jan (referee) ; Krejsa, Jiří (advisor)
Práce se zabývá návrhem jednoúčelového plně automatického zařízení pro automobilový průmysl, které dávkuje silikonovou směs do pouzdra snímače. V první části práce je řešen návrh mechanické části zařízení, zejména manipulátoru pro polohování dávkovací hlavy. K pohonu manipulátoru je využito pneumatických prvků, které jsou řízeny elektrickými signály. Druhá část práce se zabývá řízením stroje, které je realizováno pomocí PLC systému. Obsluha může ovládat zařízení nebo sledovat aktuální stav na dotykovém panelu. V závěru práce je prezentováno skutečné provedení zařízení a propojení s výrobní linkou.
