Buddy Take care

Buddy Take care

Abstract

**Innovative Walking Stick "Buddy Take Care"** The "Buddy Take Care" walking stick is designed to physically support the elderly or individuals recovering from injuries, enabling convenient mobility, reducing the risk of falls, and enhancing walking safety. It is crafted as a keychain-style walking stick with a one-touch open-close mechanism. Building upon existing market products, the Buddy walking stick incorporates additional functionalities such as a portable flashlight, a medicine compartment, and an AirTag slot to maximize utility. Its design prioritizes ease of use, convenience, and safety, specifically tailored for elderly users

Objective

ปัจจุบันประเทศไทยได้ก้าวเข้าสู่สังคมผู้สูงอายุอย่างเต็มรูปแบบ ผู้สูงอายุบางกลุ่มประสบปัญหา การเดิน การทรงตัวทำให้มีความเสี่ยงต่อการหกล้ม ซึ่งอาจส่งผลกระทบรุนแรงไม้เท้าจึงเป็นอุปกรณ์ที่ผู้สูงอายุนิยมใช้เพื่อช่วยในการเคลื่อนไหว อย่างไรก็ตาม ไม้เท้าที่พบในท้องตลาดมักมีข้อจำกัด เช่น ขนาดใหญ่ พกพายากเมื่อใช้งานเป็นเวลานานอาจทำให้รู้สึกปวดมือ ทำให้กลุ่มของพวกเราต้องการออกแบบไม้เท้าในรูปแบบใหม่ที่พกพาง่าย และปลอดภัยกับการใช้งานต่อผู้สูงอายุโดยเฉพาะ

Natural Herbicide Products as a Substitute for Paraquat

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.

Effect of Packaging Thickness on Corn Silage Quality

Climate change and the increasing unpredictability of environmental conditions have aggravated the shortage of animal feed crops during the dry season. This study examines effect of packaging thickness on the quality of corn silage during long-term storage, to maintain its nutritional value during feed shortages. The results show that packaging with thicknesses of 80, 120, 150, and 200 microns effectively maintain good physical quality, including odor, texture, color, and pH levels, during the 0–21day storage period. The silage had a fermented like fruit flavor or vinegar flavor, a silage texture, and well-preserved leaves and stems. Its color remained yellowish-green, with pH values between 3.7 and 4.7. Additionally, lactic acid analysis found that silage in 200-micron-thick packaging for 21 days had the highest lactic acid content (5.64%). However, there were no significant differences in the nutritional value of the silage across different packaging thicknesses
