Dream High Packaging Protection from Mycelium

Abstract

In a world increasingly focused on sustainability and reducing environmental impact, DreamHigh is pioneering an innovative approach to packaging solutions using mycelium—a natural, biodegradable, and renewable material derived from fungi. Our mission is to revolutionize the packaging industry by offering eco-friendly alternatives that not only reduce waste but also align with global efforts to combat climate change. Mycelium packaging offers a compelling alternative to traditional plastic and Styrofoam packaging, which contribute significantly to environmental pollution. It is fully biodegradable, compostable, and capable of breaking down in natural environments within weeks, leaving no toxic residues behind. Additionally, mycelium-based products are lightweight, durable, and customizable, making them suitable for a wide range of applications, from consumer goods packaging to protective shipping materials. DreamHigh’s business plan outlines a scalable production process leveraging advanced mycelium cultivation techniques and partnerships with local agricultural sectors to utilize agricultural waste as a key raw material. This not only ensures cost-efficiency but also supports a circular economy by repurposing waste that would otherwise be discarded.

Objective

เนื่องจากเราเล็งเห็นถึงปัญหาของการทิ้งโฟมหรือพลาสติกกันกระแทก ที่ใช้เวลาในการย่อยสลายนาน เราจึงนำตัวไมซีเลียมที่ใช้เวลาย่อยสลายไม่นานอีกทั้งยังเป็นมิตรต่อธรรมชาติ

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.

New chili varieties resistant to anthracnose and Pepper yellow leaf curl diseases and high pungency

The research aims to develop chili Thai commercial varieties for resistance to anthracnose and Pepper yellow leaf curl virus disease. The varieties allowing farmer to reduce the use of chemical pesticides for disease and pest control, also increases productivity and lowers production costs for farmers. The development new varieties are under studied of undergraduate, master's, and doctoral students by using conventional and molecular plant breeding. The new chili varieties were released to farmer and commercial companies for development for Thai commercial seed industry.
