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)

Parking space shortages in urban areas contribute to traffic congestion, inefficient land use, and environmental challenges. Automated Parking Systems (APS) provide an innovative solution by optimizing space utilization, reducing search times, and minimizing carbon emissions. This research investigates key factors influencing user adoption of APS technology using the UTAUT2 framework, focusing on variables such as Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, Trust in Technology, and Environmental Consciousness. The APS Evolution project presents a smart parking solution that enhances efficiency, minimizes environmental impact, and improves user experience in urban settings. The initiative emphasizes technology-driven urban mobility and sustainable parking management to align with the evolving needs of modern cities.
