Software research laboratory

Long-term pursuit of modern and innovative products and services led us to software research. We work on research projects of various kinds - European, customer/commercial and internal - for more than 15 years. We have a stable, professionally focused staff and we publish the results in various periodicals. We hold the Certificate of the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport on the ability to carry out science and research (certificate number 2018/2368:2-26C0) in accordance with § 26a of Act no. 172/2005 Coll. on the organization of state support for research and development and on the amendment of Act no. 575/2001 Coll. on the organization of government activities and the organization of the central state administration.

CHALLENGES WE SOLVED WITH
NEW TECHNOLOGY

WE SEE LOSS OF FERTILE SOIL THROUGH EROSION

Challenge: Water erosion is caused by flowing water in sloping and uneven terrain, on dry land, not covered by vegetation. Gravity gives it energy and it loosens, transports, and sediments the soil. It carries away the top organic matter and nutrients, and the soil becomes less fertile.

Solution: In the URANOS project, we created an application that calculates and visualizes the loss of fertile soil through erosion and determines the most appropriate agricultural measures to reduce it at the lowest possible cost. In addition to algorithms, the utility model also includes storage of external data sources and the possibility of connecting to remote devices for land management planning. This solution helps farmers, foresters, and municipalities.

WE SEE THREAT OF LAND SLIDES

Problem: Vertical land torrents occur during intense rainfall. The energy of running water washes away the soil, especially on slopes not protected by vegetation. They often arise in mountainous areas during logging and disturb the stability of the slopes. They can cause landslides, reduce the area suitable for forest cultivation, and reduce the possibility of handling and weighing wood. Over time, they can grow to large sizes, representing potential danger to property, or even health and lives.

Solution: In the FOMON project, we created a system that helps to automatically identify and subsequently monitor vertical torrents and their development. It analyzes remote sensing data obtained at different times and, with the help of a special algorithm, detects and visualizes the terrain in a 3D model.

WE SEE INVISIBLE phenomena IN INDUSTRY AREAS

Challenge: Invisible and potentially dangerous phenomena can occur in industrial areas. For example, leakage of dangerous substances causing contamination or endangering health of employees; or  overheating of equipment above the limit of operating temperatures, which can be the first indicator of an impending malfunction or accident.

Solution: In the UAV project, we created a system for spatial monitoring of quantities obtained from measurements by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) equipped with a quantity tracking sensor. After importing 3D point clouds, the software automatically interpolates the 3D model, which is evaluated and identifies measurement errors. The resulting clean 3D model is visualized through virtual reality and allows the end user to monitor their area or territory by moving in the virtual model.
