PDU with Consumption Metering Function for Single-Board Computers
Ondráček, Roman ; Růžička, Richard (referee) ; Šimek, Václav (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is to design a power distribution unit for single-board computers that can switch its individual outputs and also measure electrical quantities (voltage, current and power) based on the Espressif ESP32 platform and to design a web interface for the management of these power distribution units. This solution will be mainly aimed for the use of power distribution units in the development process of embedded devices built on top of single board computers. The proposed solution consists of a power distribution unit and a management information system, the communication between the different parts is done using the MQTT protocol. The information system can be used to control the individual outputs of the power distribution unit, to view graphs of the measured quantities.

Wireless Sensor Network
Nosko, Matúš ; Materna, Zdeněk (referee) ; Zemčík, Pavel (advisor)
The work was focused on creating a secure sensor network based on mesh topology, built on devices from Espressif. It also concentrates on code security and connecting this network to the cloud. The mesh network created is dynamic, regenerative, and self-organizing. The entire network is built on Wi-Fi, making it easy to connect to the internet, as the only condition for its operation is to have Wi-Fi at the installation site, eliminating the need for any special device to connect the network to the internet - it's gatewayless. Even if one node fails, the network self-organizes according to the newly created conditions and continues to function. The most modern security methods are used to secure the devices, such as secure boot and flash encryption. The MQTT protocol is used to connect the mesh network to the server. The MQTT broker, database, and API interface on the server side are dockerized. Thanks to these docker containers, it is easy to extend server parts. Also, values from devices are stored in a database and displayed on a website. The entire network solution was implemented in the ESP-IDF environment and tested on ESP32-S3 devices.

Communication infrastructure for drone swarm
Kubant, Michal ; Mikulka, Jan (referee) ; Janoušek, Jiří (advisor)
This thesis deals with creation and testing of wireless communication network used for transmission of multimedia and telemetry data in swarm of unmanned aerial vehicles. In the first part of this work are presented functions of the IEEE 802.11ax and their possible usage. The second part if thesis describes configuration of network elements in the wireless network, and discusses maximum transmission speed. The third part presents testing of the assembled network, designs and use of protocols for multimedia streams in a swarm of drones. Also the results are briefly evaluated and illustrated. The fourth part analyzes the methodology of testing the network in the outdoor environment, it discusses the results obtained by using this methodology in different outdoor spaces, and further proposes suitable solutions for improving the efficiency and range of the wireless network.

Wireless Communication Module for Educational Kit Minerva
Fiľo, Richard ; Strnadel, Josef (referee) ; Šimek, Václav (advisor)
In this thesis, we are concerned with the design of an extension module that will provide wireless communication capability to the Minerva platform. The result of our work is an adapter that is attached to the Minerva platform and then our expansion module is inserted into it using an M.2 connector. The module supports Wi-Fi 4.2, BLE 5 and LoRa standards. For the selected module, we have created a communication interface designed to work easily with the module. In the following, we present worked examples and a demo application using this module. All components are tested and work as we expect.

Multifunction speaker with wireless connectivity
Baránek, Michal ; Kratochvíl, Tomáš (referee) ; Kufa, Jan (advisor)
Tato práce se věnuje multifunkčnímu systému s více možnostmi pro přenos zvukového signálu do reproduktoru. Problémem u dnes velmi populárních komerčních přenosných reproduktorů je absence autonomního zdroje hudby, například v podobě rádia. Proto je cílem této práce právě dosáhnout takového multifunkčního reproduktoru podobnému jako jsou komerční přenosné reproduktory, ale s možností přehrávání radia distribuovaného pomocí internetové sítě. Další z nejdůležitějších funkcí těchto reproduktorů je bezdrátové připojení, jako je Bluetooth, pro streamování zvuku, například z telefonu do reproduktoru. Další významné aspekty těchto reproduktorů jsou jednoduché uživatelské rozhraní, převážně ve formě ovládacích tlačítek, kvalitní zvukový výstup s přiměřeným výstupním výkonem k velikosti reproduktoru a velkou výdrží baterie pro několika hodinový poslech na nízké nebo střední úrovni hlasitosti. Proto jsou i tyto všechny funkce implementovány v této práci výroby multifunkčního reproduktoru.

Automatic Dosing Unit for Pool Chemistry
Kejík, Jan ; Štůsek, Martin (referee) ; Zeman, Kryštof (advisor)
The objective of this thesis was to design and construct the dosing unit for pool chemistry with the features of common available equipments, but with lower acquisition costs compared to these equipments. The initial part of this thesis describes the requirements for water quality in the pools and the principles of its sustaining. The next section describes the ESP32 microcontroller, which was selected because of sufficient computation power and memory resources and RF connectivity capability. Furthermore, the pH, ORP probes and temperature sensors for measurement of the pool water quality are described in this section. Lastly, sensor convertors, power supplies, pump controls circuit and display interface are described here. The key section of the thesis is the design description which consists of hardware, mechanical and software section. It starts by the description of the printed circuit board with a description of diagram. In the section followed is described and illustrated mechanical design of the box for this dosing equipment. It is my own design made by 3D print. The last design section deals with software consisting of three different kinds of software: display software, ESP32 microcontroller firmware written in C/C++ and HTML code of the webside. This description is focused especially on the firmware architecture of the processor ESP32 related to consecutive part including description of a local user interface as well as a web application. The resulting device was developed to the state with matured well tested user interfaces. However, the controls algorithms of pH and ORP were tested only in simulated conditions. Therefore the testing in real pool for verification of the firmware and reliability should be done in the next steps.
