Summary
Foundation course consists characteristic properties of matter, physical fields, radiation and technical measurements. The student has knowledge about basic principles of mechanics, optics and acoustics and can apply these principles to solve problems. Students are familiar with the possibilities of using physical principles in the field of security technology, knows basic physical quantities used in safety practices, including understanding their mutual relationship. Emphasis is placed on linking theoretical and practical aspects of the problems, ie. Physical principle function of the device, including the possibility of practical applications, analysis of specific issues of security technologies.
