Science and Research
at FIT

An interactive exhibition on robotics was prepared by the Technical Museum in Brno for the 100th anniversary of the first edition of Karel Čapek's drama R. U. R., in which the author first made use of the new word "robot". The exhibition presents the importance of robotics in industry, science and technology, but also in culture and art. Among the hundred exhibits, visitors will also find robots from FIT.

The device developed at the Faculty of Information Technology of BUT could, in the future, help land surveyors all over the world create 3D models. The backpack with a laser scanner and sensors scans the walk-through area and the software subsequently creates a model. The experts from BUT are now planning to work on a solution for cars.
