VŠB - Technical University of Ostrava - Faculty of Mining and Geology
The Unmanned Systems study program responds to the dynamically developing market utilizing these technologies in an ever-wider range of human activities and addresses current trends within the strategic requirements of Industry 5.0 and Society 5.0, big data, and artificial intelligence. Students are comprehensively familiarized with the operation of unmanned aircraft, including legislative aspects, and gain practical experience in flying unmanned aircraft and capturing and processing image and other recordings. Depending on the topic of their dissertation, they deepen their theoretical and practical knowledge in necessary areas such as the development of new materials and the construction of unmanned aircraft, the development of sensory equipment for unmanned aircraft, 2D and 3D mapping and monitoring using unmanned systems, autonomous operation of unmanned aircraft, including collaborative systems, air traffic control of unmanned systems (Uspace), and the development of methods for processing data from unmanned systems, including real-time and online processing.
