Productivity Improvement in Warehouse Using Power BI and Power Automate

Productivity Improvement in Warehouse Using Power BI and Power Automate

Abstract

This cooperative education project aims to enhance speed and facilitate the verification process for stock issuance, transfers, distributions, and receipts in the warehouse. The primary focus is to address issues related to wasted time and delays in operational processes. Through analysis, it was found that SAP, the current system, involves complex processes requiring specialized expertise. Although the company has developed the iWarehouse system to improve efficiency, delays and procedural complexity persist. To resolve these challenges, Power BI was utilized to visualize data related to stock issuance, transfers, distributions, and receipts, allowing warehouse staff to work more efficiently by minimizing waste and accelerating processes. Additionally, Power Automate was integrated to automate the processing of received stock numbers from emails, reducing errors and delays caused by manual data entry. The results of this improvement indicate a significant increase in employee efficiency and a noticeable reduction in wasted time. Upon project completion, the findings and development approach will be provided to the company for further enhancement.

COMMUNICATION ASSISTANCE SYSTEM FOR PARALYZED IMMOBILE PATIENTS BY EYE TRACKING

This project aims to design and develop an eye-tracking system to facilitate communication for paralyzed immobile patients. The system is designed to enable patients to convey their needs to caregivers or family members by detecting and tracking eye movements using the Tobii Eye Tracker 5 device. This approach serves as an alternative communication method, replacing the physical movement or speech of paralyzed patients. The system effectively detects and tracks eye movements at a distance of 55 to 85 centimeters and is designed for installation on a computer to ensure ease of use. The program interface consists of three main sections: (1) a set of emotions, (2) a set of needs, and (3) a set of additional needs. It supports input from a virtual keyboard in both Thai and English and allows users to specify additional needs through eye-tracking-enabled typing. Furthermore, the system can generate synthetic speech for text that is difficult to pronounce aloud, send notification messages via the Line application, and store usage data in a database presented in a dashboard format. System testing revealed that the optimal detection distance ranges from 65 to 75 centimeters, as this range yields an error rate of no more than 1 percent. The system accurately responds to eye movements for communication through sound within 3 seconds when interacting with various function buttons. This eye-tracking system effectively enables paralyzed immobile patients to communicate their emotions and needs, facilitating better understanding and interaction between patients and their caregivers or family members.

The Development of Hand Gesture Recognition for Controlling Electronic Devices

This research will begin with a review of literature and related studies to examine existing technologies and methods for hand gesture recognition and their applications in controlling electronic devices such as drones, robots, and gaming systems. Subsequently, a hand gesture recognition system will be designed and developed using machine learning and computer vision techniques, with a focus on creating an algorithm that operates quickly and accurately, making it suitable for real-time control. The developed system will be tested and refined using various simulated scenarios to evaluate its efficiency and accuracy in diverse environments. Additionally, a user-friendly interface will be developed to ensure accessibility for all user groups. The research will also incorporate qualitative studies to gather feedback from both novice users and experts, which will contribute to further system improvements, ensuring it effectively meets user needs. Ultimately, the findings of this research will lead to the development of a functional prototype for gesture-based control, which can be applied in industries and entertainment. This will contribute to advancements in innovation and new technologies in the future.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF WASTE SLAG DRAINAGE FLOORING MATERIALS

The objective of this research is to utilize waste slag in industrial applications and help mitigate flooding, water accumulation, and ponding issues. Currently, slag from the steel smelting or refining process is commonly used as a component in construction materials, such as road surfaces. However, slag has properties that make it difficult for water to permeate, leading to poor drainage and increased flooding problems. This study focuses on improving the properties of pavement materials to enhance their strength and water permeability. This can be achieved through physical structural modifications or the addition of chemical agents such as HPMC, which increases void spaces to facilitate water absorption and drainage according to required standards. The utilization of waste slag not only helps reduce production costs and improve material performance but also minimizes environmental impacts and promotes the sustainable use of resources.
