Feedback for active hand prosthesis
Trajlinek, Jan ; Sekora, Jiří (referee) ; Harabiš, Vratislav (advisor)
This thesis deals with the solution for feedback of active prostheses to ensure that it is as similar as possible to the biological somatosensory system, and at the same time to prevent any limitations to the patient and provide the patient with as much useful information about the sensual touch as possible. With regard to these factors, the system for the detection of forces acting on the limb and the subsequent transmission of this signal to the user´s limb is proposed. This system is designed particularly for an already constructed prosthesis manufactured by Ing. Štěpán Brázdil within the diploma thesis from 2020. The thesis describes the biological response, on which all substitutive and artificial responses are based on. The thesis then further describes these substitutive and artificial responses and aims to find solution, how the biological response can be more or less replaced.

A Touch Sensor on the Glass Plate with a Backlit Pictogram
Jánešová, Daniela ; Levek, Vladimír (referee) ; Šťáva, Martin (advisor)
This thesis describes the solution of controlling device by capacitive-touch sensor. The geometry of the sensor is solved on standard printed circuit board, which is placed on the glass-made panel. In general, the theme of touch sensors is solved in the world by several companies and it is based on capacitive principles. They are described at the beginning of the work. By far, the main part of the work is focused on specific solutions with chosen integrated circuit for evaluation of touch sensor.

(Now what?)
Šťastná, Kateřina ; Chamonikolasová, Kaliopi (referee) ; Gabriel, Michal (advisor)
The topic of the bachelor thesis is touch. The work builds on the fascination with touch, analyzes how different contents can be associated with a gesture that symbolizes something very subtle, fleeting and even fleeting, but at the same time can elicit a very intense and calmly long-lasting response. The output of the bachelor's thesis is a figural sculpture, the prototype of which is the author herself at the age of ten. By depicting a girl's body at an age when it is physically beginning to transform into a woman's body, I ephasizis the touch in its inconsistency, perhaps subtly uncertain the audience and raise questions focused on what the touch means to us.

The effect of tactile and acoustic signals on reduction of signs of stress in dogs
Murínová, Karolína ; Santariová, Milena (advisor) ; Fuchs, Roman (referee)
Being touched by the human brings up physiological and behavioral feedback in the dog which indicates touch has a calming effect. Measurements taken include noticable changes in blood pressure, heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) as well as hormonal changes - especially oxytoxin and cortisol levels. The primary objective of the fieldwork was analyzing the influence human touch has on the stressed dog and trying to bring its stress levels down using voice stimulation and a combination of voice and tactile stimuli. The dog was put into an empty room, causing elevated stress levels. After a fixed period of time the dog's owner would enter and try to calm the dog down using afromentioned treatments. The owner would then sit down on a chair and pay no more attention to the dog. The relaxing effect is being evaluated using two cardiovascular parameters, HR and HRV, and behavioural signaling. Measurements of each of the sessions are being taken three times when the dog is not moving. Phase 1 is when the dog is alone in a room, Phase 2 is taken just after the interaction with its owner has ended and Phase 3 at the end of the experiment when the dog's stress level is still. The results showed that, instead of the expected calming effect of social interaction with the owner, the effect was...
