This research aims to develop an automatic gemstone color sorting machine to overcome the limitations of manual color sorting, which can be restricted by speed and accuracy. This study applies deep learning technology to analyze and classify gemstone colors precisely, developing an algorithm capable of accurately detecting and categorizing color shades. An automated conveyor system was also designed to efficiently transport gemstones through the color sorting process, allowing for continuous operation. The sorting machine works by capturing high-resolution images of the gemstones, processing them with software to classify color shades, and directing each gemstone to its designated position on the automated conveyor. Experimental results demonstrate that the automated color sorting machine, integrated with the conveyor system, achieves high speed and accuracy, significantly reducing labor costs and enhancing the efficiency of gemstone color sorting.
ปัจจุบันการตรวจสอบเฉดสีของพลอยถือเป็นขั้นตอนสำคัญในการประเมินคุณภาพ ทั้งในกระบวนการผลิตและการค้าขาย อย่างไรก็ตามการตรวจสอบเฉดสีที่ดำเนินการโดยมนุษย์นั้นมีข้อจำกัดหลายประการ ซึ่งหนึ่งในนั้นเป็นเรื่องความสามารถในการแยกเฉดสีที่ซับซ้อน ซึ่งอาจทำให้การตรวจสอบใช้เวลานาน และมีความแม่นยำต่ำ จากปัญหาดังกล่าว จึงได้พัฒนาแนวคิดในการสร้างเครื่องคัดแยกเฉดสีพลอยอัตโนมัติ โดยใช้ระบบ Computer Vision ร่วมกับระบบอัตโนมัติในการวิเคราะห์เฉดสีของพลอย เพื่อลดข้อจำกัดของการตรวจสอบด้วยมนุษย์ เพิ่มความแม่นยำและประสิทธิภาพในการทำงาน รวมถึงทำให้กระบวนการตรวจสอบเป็นไปอย่างรวดเร็วและมีมาตรฐานของเฉดสี GIA (Gemological Institute of America)

The thesis artwork titled “The Red Mist” presents a narrative adapted from a short story of the same name by Assistant Professor Chatnarong Wisutkul in 2003. The story is set in a future world where people's greed and selfishness have led to a war, forcing them to rely on "breathing machines" to survive in the "red toxic mist." Phakin, a 15-year-old boy, embarks on a journey with a group of refugees. As they pass through abandoned cities, they encounter a boy without a breathing machine who has recently lost his father. Phakin decides to help him, despite objections from others. The boy tries to end his life by shutting off his breathing machine, and when Phakin intervenes to save him, he collapses from inhaling the toxic air. Witnessing Phakin's selfless act, the others are moved and join forces to save both of them. Phakin demonstrates that in difficult times, humans must cooperate and help each other rather than being divided and selfish.

Currently, lithium batteries are widely used in electronic devices and electric vehicles, making the estimation of their State of Health (SOH) crucial. Accurate SOH estimation helps extend battery lifespan, reduce maintenance costs, and prevent safety issues such as overheating or explosions. This project aims to study and analyze mathematical models of batteries and develop SOH estimation techniques using Neural Networks to enhance accuracy and evaluation speed. The experiment involved collecting charge and discharge data from three lithium battery cells under controlled temperature conditions while maintaining a constant current. The current, voltage, and time data were recorded and analyzed to determine the battery capacity for each cycle. These data were then used to train a Neural Network model. The results demonstrated an effective method for predicting battery health status. The outcomes of this project can contribute to the development of a Battery Management System (BMS) that improves battery efficiency and longevity. Additionally, it provides a foundation for applying artificial intelligence techniques in the energy sector effectively.
