Designed Quality coffee from fermentation

Designed Quality coffee from fermentation

Abstract

Coffee is a critical agricultural commodity to be used to produce a premium beverage to serve people worldwide. Coffee microbiome turned to be an essential tool to improve the bean quality through the natural fermentation. Therefore, understanding the microbial diversities could create the final product's better quality. This study investigated the natural microbial consortium during the wet process fermentation of coffee onsite in Thailand to characterize the microorganisms involved in correlation toward the biochemical characteristics and metabolic attributes. Roasting is another important step in developing the complex flavor/ aroma that make coffee to be enjoyable. During the roasting process, the beans undergo many complex and alternatively change in the physicochemical properties from the gained substances in the fermentation process. The changing in the formation of the substances responsible for the sensory qualities, physicochemical/ aroma attributes as well as the health benefits of the final product. Using the starter culture could also develop the distinguished characteristics of coffee (Research collaboration with Van Hart company)

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.

Revolutionizing pill identification by using deep convolutional neural network based on widely-used essential household remedy drugs

This study explores the application of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for accurate pill identification, addressing the limitations of traditional human-based methods. Using a dataset of 1,250 images across 10 household remedy drugs, various CNN architectures, including YOLO models, were tested under different conditions. Results showed that natural lighting was optimal for imprinted pills, while a lightbox improved detection for plain pills. The YOLOv5-tiny model demonstrated the best detection accuracy, and efficientNet_b0 achieved the highest classification performance. While the model showed strong results, its generalization is limited by sample size and drug variability. Nonetheless, this approach holds promise for enhancing medication safety and reducing errors in outpatient care.

Portable Ballet Gesture Testing Console (Posé Ballet V2.0)

Ballet dancing requires clear and precise body gestures. To raise standard and motivation for Thai ballet dancers, this testing console is developed such that dancers and beginners are able to learn and keep track of their dancing progress. Their gestures can be compared with internationally recognized ballet dancers without face-to-face learning. This enables self-development according to their purposes and pace. The portable console is easy to use. Connect it to a monitor, turn on, and enjoy.
