A DESIGN GUIDELINE FOR PROTOTYPE APPLICATION OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION AT KING MONGKUT'S INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY LADKRABANG.

Abstract

This research aims to study the guidelines and develop a prototype of an application for public transport users to plan their journey and increase safety in using different types of public transport to travel to King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang. The objectives are as follows: 1) To study the factors of user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design that affect the users of the application for using public transport. 2) To study the needs of users of public transport applications who must travel to King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang. 3) To present the guidelines for designing the user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) and to produce a prototype of the application for using public transport to travel to King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang. The research includes a review of the literature on User Experience (UX) and User Interface (UI) design, as well as a look at examples of public transportation applications and pick-up sites near King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang. This study is based on qualitative research. There are examples of employing relevant applications during the interview. The target audience is students aged 18 to 35 who will give prototypes for application development to satisfy their requirements. Provide information that is actually useful to users. The research results found that the public transport vehicles that the target group used the most were the Songthaew (the pick-up truck), train, airport rail link, motorcycle taxi, taxi, and bus, respectively. Users were concerned about various safety issues and wanted to design features to increase safety and confidence in using public transport vehicles for students, such as sending locations to relevant officials in the event of an emergency or when assistance was needed, and important information about public transport vehicles that students needed, such as calculating prices, calculating travel times, bus schedules, official and clear pick-up and drop-off points, bus routes, driver registration, suggestions or route recommendations, and the time of public transport vehicles arriving at the point where users were waiting, etc. The guidelines for designing the User Experience (UX) were presented from the analysis of the target group's data, which was a prioritization of the features of the menu for recording frequently used routes, a menu showing nearby pick-up points, a menu for searching for routes and selecting using various user constraints, such as calculating travel prices or travel times, and a menu that could set fonts and color modes to support a variety of users. This was because the study of user needs for fonts found an equal demand for Thai fonts with looped (Looped font) and without looped (Loopless font), as well as a study of the application's color requirements, which required both light and dark colors to be displayed in approximately equal amounts. This includes the design of the user interface (User Interface) by designing symbols that allow users to access the desired information quickly without confusion.

Detection of salivary biomarker for migraine diagnosis

Migraine, a prevalent neurological disorder, is the third most common disease globally, causing significant health and financial burdens. It has four stages: prodrome, aura, headache, and postdrome. The prodrome (also known as premonitory) stage is crucial as it precedes the headache by up to 72 hours. Taking medication during the premonitory peroid has shown to prevent the headache phase . However, the symptoms of premonitory period lack specificity, making it difficult for patients to know if they’re experiencing premonitory symptoms. Calcitonin-gene related peptide (cGRP),is a protein that plays a key role in migraine pathogenesis and studies found that salivary cGRP levels increase during the premonitory stage. This study aims to develop and evaluate a lateral flow immunoassay kit for detecting salivary cGRP levels in migraine patients during the prodrome stage. It can serve as a confirmation tool for premonitory symptoms.

Effects of Different Salinity Levels on Survival Rate and Growth Performance of Golden Apple Snail (Pomacea canaliculata) for Brackish Water Aquaculture Development

This study aimed to investigate the effects of different salinity levels on survival rate and growth performance of golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata). The experiment was conducted at salinity levels of 0, 5, 10, and 15 ppt, with four replicates each, over an 8-week period. The results showed that golden apple snails reared at 5-10 ppt exhibited survival rates and growth performance not significantly different (p>0.05) from those in the freshwater control group (0 ppt). These findings suggest the potential for developing golden apple snail culture in brackish water systems and the possibility of integration with other brackish water species in polyculture systems.

il n'y a rien à faire

This artwork was created based on the universal concepts of global warming and post-apocalyptic world, which has caused disturbances and chaos in ecosystems, leading to the extinction of many living beings on Earth due to human actions. Repairing and restoring this world may therefore be a false hope, connected to my personal experience of losing loved ones and the sorrow from setting high hope, through the artistic process using Animation Art and Sound Art.
