This project presents the development of an automatic recycling machine for plastic bottles and cans, utilizing Machine Learning for packaging classification through image processing, integrated with smart sensor systems for quality inspection and operation control. The system connects to a Web Application for real-time monitoring and control. Once the packaging type is verified, the system automatically calculates the refund value and processes payment through e-wallet or issues cash vouchers. The system can be installed in public spaces to promote waste segregation at source, reduce contamination, and increase recycling efficiency. It also provides financial incentives to encourage public participation in waste management. This project demonstrates the potential of combining Machine Learning and smart sensor systems in developing accurate, convenient, and sustainable waste management solutions.
ปัจจุบันปัญหาขยะเป็นหนึ่งในปัญหาสิ่งแวดล้อมที่มีผลกระทบต่อทั้งมนุษย์และธรรมชาติ โดยเฉพาะอย่างยิ่งการจัดการขยะพลาสติกและกระป๋องที่ยังคงเป็นปัญหาหลักในการรีไซเคิล ขยะเหล่านี้มักจะถูกทิ้งในสถานที่ไม่เหมาะสม หรือถูกแยกประเภทผิด ทำให้กระบวนการรีไซเคิลไม่สามารถทำได้อย่างมีประสิทธิภาพและเต็มที่ นอกจากนี้การคัดแยกขยะจากต้นทางยังไม่เป็นที่นิยมและยังขาดระบบที่มีความสะดวกสบายและเข้าถึงง่ายสำหรับประชาชนทั่วไป ในปัจจุบันมีการพัฒนาเทคโนโลยีที่ช่วยในกระบวนการคัดแยกขยะ โดยเฉพาะการใช้ Machine Learning และระบบเซนเซอร์อัจฉริยะในการจำแนกประเภทบรรจุภัณฑ์ผ่านการประมวลผลภาพ ซึ่งมีศักยภาพในการเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพของกระบวนการคัดแยกขยะและลดข้อผิดพลาดจากการแยกประเภทขยะที่ไม่ถูกต้อง นอกจากนี้ยังสามารถสร้างแรงจูงใจให้ประชาชนมีส่วนร่วมในการจัดการขยะได้ผ่านการให้ผลตอบแทนทางการเงิน เช่น การจ่ายเงินผ่าน e-wallet หรือออกคูปองแลกเงินสด โครงงานนี้จึงมีความสำคัญในการนำเทคโนโลยี Machine Learning และระบบเซนเซอร์อัจฉริยะมาประยุกต์ใช้ในการพัฒนาระบบตู้รับซื้ออัตโนมัติที่สามารถคัดแยกและรีไซเคิลขวดพลาสติกและกระป๋องได้อย่างมีประสิทธิภาพและสะดวกสบาย สร้างแรงจูงใจในการรีไซเคิลและมีส่วนช่วยในการแก้ไขปัญหาขยะในระดับสาธารณะ

Industrial Education and Technology, King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang has a vision for sustainable excellence. The mission is to develop learners to be ready for the digital world, develop educational innovations using research as a base, strategic management with good governance, and academic services that benefit society. In this activity, the group of students joined with the Embassy of the Russian Federation in the Kingdom of Thailand, the working group of the Thai Silk and Culture Promotion Association, and the working group of the National Research Office (NRCT) to integrate knowledge to design a silk outfit that combines Thai and Russian cultures, create a network of cooperation in arts, culture, technology, innovation, and dissemination of knowledge and the beauty of Thai silk. The objective is to develop the potential of teachers and students in creative design, listen to the work guidelines from the working group of the Thai Silk and Culture Promotion Association, the working group of the National Research Office (NRCT) via an online meeting. The team of teachers and students from King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang under the name of the "Love Silk" group designed a Thai silk outfit that combines cultures with the identity of Thai silk and studying traditions and cultures of the Russian Federation's clothing. They studied related literature and research documents and integrated knowledge into the design process, inspired by the concept of the Rajapataen outfit. Since the reign of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) in 1872, together with the clothing culture of the Russian Federation, emphasizing Thai silk, this concept has gone through the process of creating and selecting the design concept (Concept Generation and Selection). The concept received from the embassy was first submitted for feedback on July 25, 2024. There was a suggestion to add more uniqueness to Thai silk through a fashion show presentation by the wife and grandson of the Ambassador of the Russian Federation. Therefore, the designed outfits are 1 set of women's clothes and 1 set of boys' clothes. The women's set has an inner shirt adapted from the royal outfit using silk fabric, Kon Ka-ed pattern, with two separate pieces: 1 shirt and 1 skirt. The jacket is a modified long suit style, plain silk, dark pink and red. The boys' set has a long-sleeved shirt adapted from the contemporary royal style, tailored with cream silk, long slacks tailored with raw betel silk, and a collarless coat with blue silk and lotus pattern. Adapted from the Rajapattan suit with a long collar in an international style. On August 2, 2024, the designed suit and the prototype of the raw fabric suit were brought to the ambassador's wife and nephew to try on. On August 30, 2024, the ambassador was met for the 4th time to bring the silk suit that was cut into a real silk suit. The shirt was given to the ambassador's wife and nephew to try on. It was worn to join the fashion show in the 13th "Thai Silk to the World" Silk Festival at the Naval Auditorium, where lecturers and students from the Faculty of Industrial Education and Technology, King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang, joined the fashion show in the finale round, which proceeded smoothly. After the event, the working group of the Thai Silk and Culture Promotion Association brought the clothes designed and tailored by the "Rak Prae Mai" team to exhibit Thai Silk to the World Exhibition from September 1-8, 2024 at the Emsphere Shopping Mall. The team summarized the report and compiled a complete report. In the implementation of this project, the Faculty of Industrial Education and Technology, King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang has received support and facilitation throughout the project. The budget support from the National Research Council of Thailand (NRCT), the support of fabrics for sewing from the Thai Silk and Culture Promotion Association, and the information for designing valuable silk dresses from the Embassy of the Russian Federation in the Kingdom of Thailand are very important factors that made this operation a success. It is a very important experience for the team of teachers and students of Industrial Education and Technology, King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang. We sincerely hope to receive good cooperation in the future.

The use of chemical herbicides in agriculture has raised concerns due to its adverse effects on farmers' health, environmental sustainability, and consumer safety. Paraquat, a widely used herbicide, has been banned in Thailand. In response to this issue, this research focused on the development of natural herbicide products as an alternative to conventional chemical herbicides. The study involved the extraction of bioactive compounds from selected plants with potential herbicidal properties and evaluating their effectiveness in controlling target weeds. The results indicated that the developed natural herbicide demonstrates significant weed control efficiency. Additionally, this product can be applied to organic farming systems, reducing reliance on hazardous chemicals and promoting sustainable agricultural practices. The development of this natural herbicide served as an essential step toward environmentally friendly and safe agricultural solutions.
