The research team from the Experimental Center of the Faculty of Civil Engineering will present ballistic-resistant mobile barriers, which is a lightweight protective structure characterized by rapid deployment and penetration and explosion resistance, which do not require any special handling equipment and can be adapted to many different conditions. Barriers can be easily assembled into different shapes to fulfill their role, such as checkpoints, fortified places, road blocks and street barriers in the city.
In 1999, the Department of Measurement of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering established the Laboratory for Measuring the Quality of Speech, Audio and Video Transmission in Telecommunication Networks, which was presented at the fair through a virtual shooting range. This laboratory works primarily on developing methods for subjective testing. It provides independent services in accordance with relevant ITU-T, ITU-R, ETSI and ANSI recommendations. It performs unique multilingual, multi-national subjective tests and also performs tests under special conditions, such as mental or physical stress, or solving parallel tasks. Furthermore, the Center for Artificial Intelligence has developed the basic building blocks for autonomous navigation of robots, who go through difficult terrain. The robot overcome obstacles and pitfalls in front of the visitors.
The Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic, the University of Defense and the Czech Technical University in Prague regularly appreciate personalities who have significantly contributed to the defense of our state in the field of engineering or construction issues, the Willenberg Foundation medal. This year, 20 years after joining NATO, the team of doc. Radoslav Sovják from the Faculty of Civil Engineering, represented by Jindřich Fornůsek, Jan Zatloukal, Michal Mára and prof. Petr Konvalinka received the award for the system of mobile protective barriers with increased resistance to extreme loads.
