        Centre for Applied Cybernetics

The Centre for Applied Cybernetics provides theoretically and practically oriented research in the field of automatic control. The head of the centre is Prof. Ing. Vladimír Kučera, DrSc. The main project investigators are the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague. For more information on the centre visit CAK homepage.

 

The working site located in Technical University in Brno is one of the four main investigators of the project. The responsible person of this site is Prof. Ing. Petr Vavřín, DrSc.

 

The CAK at the Technical University in Brno is further subdivided into three groups as follows:

Rektorát VUT

Artificial intelligence group

The main objective is the development and control of mobile robots, telepresence, robot soccer, the construction of mini-robots and the development of intelligent manipulators.

Responsible manager:

Doc. Ing. František Šolc, CSc.

Research workers:

Ing. Bohumil Honzík, PhD., Ing. Lukáš Kopečný, Ing. Tomáš Neužil, Ing. Luděk Žalud

Machine perception group

This group is interested in the development and implementation of the fast hardware for image processing and image recognition which is based on parallel DSP C6000 platform from Texas Instruments. The group applies results of the theoretical research in a production control, quality testing and traffic monitoring. 

Responsible manager:

Doc. Ing. Jozef Honec, CSc.

Research workers:

Ing. Petr Honec, Ing. Miroslav Mikulica, Ing. Petr Petiovský, Ing. Soběslav Valach

Automatic control group

This group deals with the sensor-less field oriented control of AC induction motors, with the development of robust speed - flux estimators and with the automatic motor parameters identification.

Responsible manager:

Prof. Ing. Petr Vavřín, DrSc.

Research workers:

Ing. Petr Blaha, PhD., Ing. Pavel Václavek, PhD.
