Hrdlička, Martin ; Baštán, Ondřej (referee) ; Kaczmarczyk, Václav (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the modification and commissioning of an older training set. The training set demonstrates the transport and sorting of the material. It consists of a material hopper, a conveyor and a manipulator. The work requires modifications to the control board firmware, program design for PLC and physical modifications. The whole process is controlled by a PLC and is controlled by an HMI started in the simulation. The result of the work is a functional training set.

Utilization of artificially created weak magnetic field for navigation in 3D space
Váňa, Dominik ; Beneš, Petr (referee) ; Havránek, Zdeněk (advisor)
This master's thesis focuses on the utilization of an artificially created weak magnetic field for navigation in 3D space. The theoretical part of this work deals with the general properties of the magnetic field and with its description. The next section of the theoretical part contains an overview of measuring principles for magnetic field measurements. Based on various types of measuring principles, the thesis elaborates on commercially available miniature sensors for magnetic field measurement with a measuring range up to 10 mT. The work focuses mainly on the magnetoresistive principle and fluxgate sensors. Furthermore, the theoretical part contains descriptions of methods for modeling the magnetic field of simple permanent magnets and various magnet assemblies. Lastly, the theoretical part involves a patent search of devices used for locating magnets that are installed in an intramedullary nail, which is used in intramedullary stabilization used on fractures of human bones. By locating the magnet in the nail, it is possible to precisely determine the position of the mounting holes. The practical part of the thesis deals with the analysis of magnetic field behavior in the vicinity of various magnetic assemblies, which were modeled in COMSOL Multiphysics using the finite element method. The models were created with the aim of analysing the behaviour of the magnetic field in the vicinity of the magnets and at the same time to find possible analytical functions that could be used to determine the position of the magnet in space relative to the probe. The result of this work is an analysis of various assemblies, which contains graphs of different dependencies and prescription of polynomial functions that approximate these dependencies. Another part of the thesis is the design of a probe that serves to locate the magnetic target. The work describes two possible methods of localization. For the differential method, a user interface in LabVIEW was created. The probe based on this method is fully capable of locating the magnet in the 2D plane. The state space search method is described only in theory.

Design and realization of the power meter with IoT connectivity
Zagrapan, Ivan ; Lattenberg, Ivo (referee) ; Krajsa, Ondřej (advisor)
This thesis deals with designing and creating working prototype of IoT Wattmeter with option to switching relay. This device can be control remotely with option to read measured values. To reach my goals, I am using open-source designing board, different sensors and modules. I tis possible to communicate with device through Wi-Fi module ESP 8266 and to test LPWAN network I am using SIGFOX, module. To measure current, it´s used simple Hall-effect sensor and all available information’s are displayed on OLED display. To switch the circuit off or on solid state relay was used. In theoretical part of the work, I am trying to explain working principles of every module and source code, which I am using to control these modules. In practical part I created scheme, using CADSoft EAGLE and created functional wattmeter. Whole work is programmed in C++ language using Arduino IDE.

Design and implementation of encoder unit
Kirchner, Tomáš ; Sova, Václav (referee) ; Spáčil, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of the thesis is to implement an absolute magnetic encoder unit as a sensor measuring the angle of rotation of a DC engine on a ballbot, which is part of the BB-8 project at the mechatronic laboratory. It describes the principals and limitations of a magnetic encoder technology, also the design of printed circuit board for the sensor and the engine housing. Testing functionality of the encoder at Raspberry Pi was part of the work as well as creating SPI communication with a master microcontroller PIC. Furthermore an accuracy of the angle of rotation sensing was measured for different inaccuracy of a magnet position to the sensor.

Development and fabrication of graphene Hall probes
Supalová, Linda ; Červenka, Jiří (referee) ; Bartošík, Miroslav (advisor)
Pokrok v inženýrství a technologiích vytvořil zájem o stabilní detektory magnetického pole schopné operovat v širokém rozsahu teplot. Senzory založené na Hallově jevu a obří magnetorezistenci jsou nejčastěji využívaná zařízení k neinvazivnímu měření statických i dynamických magnetických polí v reálném čase. Aplikace zařízení na bázi Hallova jevu zahrnují například lineární senzory magnetického pole, gyrátory, rychlostní a směrové senzory, elektrické kompasy a senzory proudu, v oblastech sahajících od výroby, automobilového a kosmického průmyslu po komunikační systémy. Nicméně současné materiály využívané v Hallových sondách (především III-V polovodiče jako InSb nebo GaAs) mají potíže s teplotní stabilitou. V této práci se zabýváme výrobou Hallových sond založených na grafénu a jejich testováním za zvýšených teplot. Úspěšně jsme vyrobili grafénové Hallovy sondy v uspořádání polem řízeného tranzistoru pomocí standartních výrobních metod jako litografie a depozice tenkých vrstev. Volba uspořádání polem řízeného tranzistoru nám umožňuje naplno využít vynikajících elektrických vlastností grafénu při testování těchto Hallových sond v rozmezí od pokojové teploty až do 200°C. Naše výsledky ukazují, že zvyšování teploty nezpůsobuje zásadní zhoršení výkonnosti grafénových Hallových sond i při teplotách nad 150°C. Tato práce otevírá dveře pro další výzkum chování grafénových Hallových sond za zvýšené teploty s důrazem na porozumění externích faktorů, které ovlivňují výkonnost takového senzoru při využití v normálních podmínkách.

Structure defects in SiC radiation detectors
Zetek, Matyáš ; Belas, Eduard (advisor)
Silicon carbide (SiC), is a wide band gap (2.4 eV < Eg < 3.3 eV) semiconducting material well known for its potential applications in high-temperature, high-power, high-frequency or hard radiation resistant devices. In this thesis, we are broadening elementary knowledge about this material. We identify energy levels in the material, using Photo-Hall effect spectroscopy supported by the temperature dependency of classic Hall effect measurement and temperature dependent photoluminescence. This knowledge is essential to allow SiC application as a radiation detector.
