Zhydyk Y. Automated control system for industrial robot manipulator

The objective of this diploma project is to develop an automated control system for an industrial robotic manipulator, consisting of two complementary components: a scaled-down “master” arm, whose movements are captured by potentiometers, and a full-sized “slave” arm that replicates these movements in real time, controlled by an Arduino Leonardo microcontroller and a 16-channel PWM controller (PCA9685) driving MG995, DS3218, and SG90 servo motors. The system ensures precise positioning, maintains a torque reserve of approximately 43% on critical axes, and displays the actuator status on an LED indicator.

The project includes an analysis of the global collaborative robotics market, formulation of the technical requirements, justification for the selected hardware components, as well as calculations of power consumption, response accuracy and dynamics, and the required torque for the base drive. The work also comprises the development of an electrical schematic, software algorithm, 3D modeling of parts in Fusion 360, and fabrication of a working prototype using FDM 3D printing with PETG/PLA, including optimization of print settings and support structures.

Kotusenko A. Autonomous mobile robot for cargo transportation

This work presents the design and implementation of an autonomous mobile robot intended for transporting small loads in a controlled indoor environment. The focus is placed on developing a platform capable of following a high-contrast line, detecting the endpoint of a predefined route, and autonomously performing object manipulation using a servo-driven gripper mechanism.

The system is based on the STM32F103C8T6 microcontroller, which processes signals from an infrared line-tracking sensor and an ultrasonic distance sensor. It controls four DC drive motors via an L298N driver and generates PWM signals to control four SG90 servo motors responsible for gripper rotation, opening/closing, and arm lifting operations.

Throughout the project, a well-justified selection of hardware components was performed. A complete structural and functional scheme was developed, mechanical and stability calculations for the chassis were provided, and custom firmware was created to implement line-following behavior, sensor signal processing, and object handling logic. Possible development paths are proposed, including migration to a Raspberry Pi platform with integration of computer vision and artificial intelligence modules.

Tsymbaliuk M. Automated air quality management system for shelter

The aim of this diploma thesis is to design and implement an automated air quality control system for a civil protection shelter intended to accommodate up to 10 people. The system is developed in accordance with current national construction standards and is designed to maintain a safe indoor microclimate in both normal and emergency conditions. It operates in two modes: a clean ventilation mode that supplies fresh air with standard filtration under regular circumstances, and a filtration-ventilation mode that is activated in case of chemical or biological threats, providing multi-stage air purification. The practical relevance of this work lies in the potential integration of the system into residential shelters to enhance safety and autonomy. The proposed solution can also serve as a prototype for broader applications in smart building technologies and emergency preparedness systems.

Illiashyk O. Optoelectronic accelerometer of the automated stabilization complex for light armored vehicles

The diploma project is devoted to the development of an optoelectronic accelerometer for the LAV stabilization complex. Today, the topic of armament is relevant. In most cases, this is the modernization of old equipment. One of the ways to improve the efficiency of military equipment is to increase the accuracy of shooting, and therefore the measuring equipment of the weapon stabilizer, in particular accelerometers.
This project considers existing stabilization systems and combat modules that improve their accuracy using such systems. Also, various types of accelerometers were considered, namely their designs, principles of operation, advantages and disadvantages.
