Herbal inhaler Homyen

Herbal inhaler Homyen

Abstract

The innovation of aromatic and cooling inhalers stems from the widespread use of inhalers in modern times. This innovation aims to elevate the product to suit contemporary lifestyles, incorporating Thai identity in a way that resonates with the younger generation. The development focuses on enhancing scents using locally sourced Thai ingredients, adding value to Thai flowers and fruits. Various extraction methods are employed to preserve the fragrance for a longer duration. Additionally, borneol, camphor, and menthol are blended to provide a refreshing and cooling sensation. For the packaging, polymer clay is used to create the container, which is hand-molded and then baked to harden. Instead of a traditional cap, a fabric covering is used to introduce a unique and innovative alternative to conventional inhalers.

Smart system for tracking raising rate of crickets using infrared camera

In raising crickets for meat consumption, the growth rate and growth period of crickets are important data used to identify the number of crickets per breeding area at each age. Therefore, the researcher has an idea to create a system for monitoring the growth rate of crickets in a closed system using an infrared camera combined with computer image processing to study the growth and identify the growth period of crickets at each age in order to obtain knowledge that can be disseminated to farmers to improve the breeding process for maximum efficiency.

Eco-Smart Noise and Vibration Absorption Block for Railway

Nowadays, rail transportation has a significant impact on people's lives and economic growth. Consequently, the number of rail systems being built around our country has dramatically increased. This process causes various types of pollution, such as noise and rail-way vibration, which can badly affect the life of citizens who live nearby. The most popular way to solve this problem recently is to decrease the noise from the sound source or to adjust the vibration by attaching a Track Damper to the railway. This technique is being used in many countries especially in Europe and Australia because it is cheap and has high efficiency. The key piece called Track Dampers are made by AUT company’s Thailand for a period of time. The company produces Track Dampers for the owner of the technology so as to sell more than 300,000 pieces of it overseas. Furthermore, the demand of Track Dampers grows as the railway systems expand. Unfortunately, the imported synthetic materials, which are used to create Track Dampers, are made from environmentally unfriendly sources. As a result, this research aims to develop the product to be environmentally-safe by replacing some imported materials with Thai’s local content; which are natural rubber and rubber crumbs. Furthermore, the product will be added value by mounting with embedded sensors for real-time monitoring of track vibration, noise, and rail temperature. All embedded devices developed will sense, collect, and automatically send to cloud by wireless technology platform. The AI and IOT platform will also be developed for safety, security, and maintenance proposed of railway track system. However, in conducting research, there will be close collaboration with AUT company through design, production, and testing. The outcome of this research is to upgrade AUT company from tier 2 manufacturer (TRL 8-9) to tier 1 manufacturer (TRL 7-8) which will be served the Thailand competitiveness enhancing strategic goal.
