Golden Banana Fries

Golden Banana Fries

Abstract

Abstract: Banana French Fries This project aimed to study and develop the product Banana French Fries, which is a snack made by frying bananas in a form similar to French fries, in order to add value to bananas and create new choices for consumers. The experiment consisted of selecting suitable banana varieties, developing a coating formula, and testing the taste of samples. The results of the study found that Nam Wa bananas are the most suitable for making banana French fries because they have a firm texture and naturally sweet taste. The best coating formula consists of wheat flour, eggs, and milk, which provide longer crispiness. The taste test found that most consumers gave a very good response and were satisfied with the taste and texture. This project shows that banana French fries are a product with potential to be developed as a healthy snack and can be further developed into a commercial product in the future.

Artificial intelligence of things system for monitoring and controlling irrigation using weather information

This research focuses on the design and development of a prototype Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) system for monitoring and controlling irrigation using weather information. The system consists of four main components: 1) Weather Station – This component includes various sensors such as air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and sunlight duration, among others, to collect real-time weather data. 2) Controller Unit – This unit is equipped with machine learning algorithms or models to estimate the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) and calculate the plant’s water requirement by integrating the crop coefficient (Kc) with other plant-related data. This enables the system to determine the optimal irrigation amount based on plant needs automatically. 3) User Interface (UI) and Display – This section allows farmers or users to input relevant information, such as plant type, soil type, irrigation system type, number of water emitters, planting distance, and growth stages. It also provides a display for monitoring and interaction with the system. 4) Irrigation Unit – This component is responsible for controlling the water supply and managing the irrigation emitters to ensure efficient water distribution based on the calculated requirements.

Smart Cat House

This project presents the development of a "Smart Cat House" using Internet of Things (IoT) and image processing technology to facilitate and enhance the safety of cat care for owners. The infrastructure of the smart cat house consists of an ESP8266 board connected to an ESP32 CAM camera for cat monitoring, and an Arduino board that controls various sensors such as a motion sensor in the litter box, a DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor, an ultrasonic water and food level sensor, including a water supply system for cats, an automatic feeding system, and a ventilation system controlled by a DC FAN that adjusts its operation according to the measured temperature to maintain a suitable environment. There is also an IR sensor to detect the cat's entry into the litter box and an automatic sand changing system with a SERVO MOTOR. All systems are connected and controlled through the Blynk application, which can be used on mobile phones, allowing owners to monitor and care for their pets remotely. Cat detection and identification uses image processing technology from the ESP32 CAM camera in conjunction with YOLO (You Only Look Once), a high-performance object detection algorithm, to detect and distinguish between cats and people. Data from various sensors are sent to the Arduino board to control the operation of various devices in the smart cat house, such as turning lights on and off, automatically changing sand, adjusting temperature and humidity, feeding food and water at scheduled times, or ventilation. The use of a connection system via ESP8266 and the Blynk application makes it easy and convenient to control various devices. Owners can monitor and control the operation of the entire system from anywhere with internet access.

Innovation in commercial vertical set of golden apple snails as environmentally friendly using an aquaponics system

The innovation of the vertical aquaponics system for rearing golden apple snails integrating with vegetable cultivation by using substrates to water treatment. The system aims to maximize the use of vertical space, save water, and produce safe vegetables for consumption or commercial purposes, and to support living things. The golden apple snail excretes wastes/leftover food scraps that are filtered on the substrates used for water treatment. Meanwhile, natural bacteria help change these wastes into nutrients that plants can use. Therefore, the system is environmentally friendly.
