Vladimir Smutny, Pavel Krsek and Pavel Pisa (from the
Department of Control Engineering)
developed, in collaboration
with Neovision s.r.o.,
a mobile robot
for air duct cleaning by dry ice blasting. The project received
third place
in the
Cooperation of the year 2010 competition organized by the
American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham)
and the
Association for Foreign Investment (AFI)
The robot was also awarded a special prize by
the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic.
The robot, which has already been put into operation, allows effective and ecological cleaning of industrial vents and air condition conduits including the motion of robot in bends and moving in horizontal, inclined, and vertical ducts. The robot was presented in the Milenium program of the Czech TV on October 29, 2010. (2010.09.30) |
Lukas Neumann's diploma thesis A method fo text localization and recognition in real-world images supervised by J. Matas won the Master Thesis of Year 2010 in Informatics award in the database engines and applications category. The organizers issed a press release about the competition (in Czech). An ACCV'10 paper describing the contribution will be posted shortly. Lukas started his PhD in CMP in September. (2010.09.18) | |
