• Responsible for this course: Jan Čech and Ondřej Drbohlav
• The Course spreads over 3 departments of the faculty: Dept. of Measurement, Dept. of Control Engineering, Dept. of Cybernetics. The Lab organizers are, per department: Martin Šipoš (Dept. Measurement), Richard Šusta (Dept. Control Eng.), Ondřej Drbohlav (Dept. Cybernetics)
• The Lectures will be given by the experts from the industry.
• The Lab meetings will be organized 3 times during the semester (see schedule). The exact times of Lab meetings will be different on each Department (but all within the given week).

You will work in a small team (4-6 people) on a real-world problem. You will need to plan your work, your milestones, analyze risks, have plan B for fixing the project if something goes wrong. You will need to divide work amongst the members of your team and communicate to be synchronized in your progress. Your work will solve the technical problem you will be assigned, and possibly even make an impact. You will be graded mainly by the technical quality of the result of your work (see below for details of grading).

• The list is here. Register your team and your topic here by Feb 29, 2016.
• Siemens Embedded Academy is run as a full-fledged module in this Course. You are welcome to enroll. The Labs of the SEA are organized independently and substitute the “ordinary” Labs of the course, meaning there are no presentations/reports to prepare and give on top of those done within SEA.

1. giving all presentations
2. submitting all the reports
3. approval from the Project Tutor

You will obtain points (sum = 100)

• up to 50: technical quality of the project - awarded by your Project Tutor.
• up to 35: your written reports
• up to 15: quality of your presentations (1st presentation 5, 2nd presentation 5, final presentation 5)

You will also receive bonus points for attending the lectures, 1 point each (max 7 points). We want you to be coming to the lectures regularly because 1) it is what lectures are for, and 2) we have found experts who are from the industry and who kindly agreed to give their lecture/s at this course at their own expenses and in their own “spare” time. This is a great value, and we want you to take it.
