Abstract

This thesis covers the development of the system Vratar which enables controlling the drive of garage doors with the use of a mobile application. A server, which is based on the computer Raspberry Pi, was set up for this purpose. In the scope of the server part an application was developed for controlling the door system. A general purpose interface was used for communication. Apart from the basic version of the system, this thesis also presents an upgrade where the communication with the door system is realized with the use of a radio connection. The development of a client for the mobile platform iOS is also described. Individual functions of the client such as push notifications, door surveillance via web camera and also opening of doors via location services are presented. The thesis finishes with a presentation of findings and possibilities for further development of the door system.
