Autonomous Monitoring System Doctoral Thesis Summary

Martin Pospíšilík

In this dissertation thesis, selected parts of the design issues on construction and control of a small airship are discussed. The main topic is focused on a construction of a small Autonomous monitoring system that consists of a small airship filled with helium, its propelling and controlling systems and several monitoring devices like a camera etc. This system is intended for an indoor operation, which increases the demands on its precise control. Whereas the topic is quite complex, special considerations were given to the following topics: hardware design, effective power supply, propelling and basic dynamical model of the system.
