The diploma project is focused on the design of an automated system for grid energy consumption monitoring and control. The relevance of the work is driven by the necessity of managing the energy consumption of residential properties with constantly rising electricity costs in Ukraine, as well as the limited functionality of traditional meters.
Within the scope of the project, technical requirements were formulated, and structural and electrical schematic diagrams of the device were developed based on the Internet of Things concept for operation under loads up to 21 A. The hardware architecture integrates the measurement circuit with the control core, autonomous power supply, and power protection. The described solutions are aimed at ensuring the stable operation of measurement circuits and reducing the thermal load on the printed circuit board during high current flow.

In the work, the process of development of a walking platform of a hexapod robot is considered. A thorough research regarding the state of the industry and possible prospects in application was conducted. Also, the possibilities of integration of computer vision into the system and the possibilities which it can provide to an operator or a control algorithm were considered.
A feature of the implementation of the prototype was the use of two microcontrollers STM32F103C8T6, as a center of control of motion management and processing of commands, and ESP32, as a video processor and a center which supports a communication channel with the operator. In the course of development, mathematical modeling was conducted, having the form of equations of forward and inverse kinematics, which are necessary for the implementation of motion algorithms. Also, modeling of the construction and its manufacturing by means of a 3D printer were conducted. In parallel with this, a selection of motors and electrical components was conducted, which are necessary for obtaining the required information for modeling the environment and conducting control by means of data transmission protocols and pulse-width modulation of the signal.
The diploma project titled " Automated spatial orientation system with haptic feedback for people with visual impairments" is dedicated to the development of an autonomous navigation solution. The relevance of the research is driven by the need to ensure safe mobility in complex urban environments using accessible methods of modern microelectronics and machine perception.
The primary objective of the work was to create the hardware architecture, algorithmic provision, and ergonomic housing for a compact modular system based on Time-of-Flight matrix rangefinders and haptic feedback actuators. Within the scope of the research, a mathematical framework and software logic were developed, enabling the real-time conversion of the distance to spatial obstacles into an intuitively understandable haptic indication based on an inversely proportional relationship.
The purpose of the thesis is to develop a "System for automated control of charging and protection of rechargeable batteries" based on a microcontroller with active balancing of elements and data transmission to the user. The structure uses stand-alone integrated circuits responsible for measuring the voltage on the elements and the current at the output.
This diploma project presents the development of an intelligent indoor microclimate monitoring system based on Internet of Things technologies, designed for real-time measurement, processing, visualization, and remote transmission of environmental parameters.
The project investigates modern approaches to the design of IoT-based environmental monitoring systems and analyzes cyber-physical system architectures as well as wireless data exchange technologies. The ESP32-S3 microcontroller platform and sensor modules for measuring temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, illumination level, particulate matter concentration, and air quality indicators were selected and justified.
