This project is a carbon safe haven of Bangkok, aspiring to be the prototypal gateway of the future's carbon net zero ambitions. The project aims to answer the fundamental "flaw" of the existing urban fabric, still being extremely inefficient and highly polluting. Conversely, Carbon Oasis would not only create its own energy, but look to provide its excess energy and water surplus' back to the city and its surroundings. Taking parts of the existing city and implementing new concepts to inspire a change in the urban fabric and its people.
โครงการนี้เริ่มต้นจากความสนใจส่วนตัวในด้านสิ่งแวดล้อมและ Green Design โดยณปัจจุบันโลกกำลังเผชิญกับวิกฤตสภาพภูมิอากาศ ซึ่งตอนนี้อุณหภูมิโลกได้เพิ่มสูงขึ้นถึงระดับ 1.5°C และกำลังเข้าใกล้ขีดจำกัด 2°C เพื่อรับมือกับสถานการณ์นี้องค์กร United Nations ได้กำหนดเป้าหมายใว้ในปี 2015 ในการบรรลุ Carbon Net Zero ภายในปี 2050 โครงการนี้ทำขึ้นเพื่อเป็นจุดเริ่มต้นของการเปลี่ยนแปลงในสถาปัตยกรรมสู่อนาคต

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 purpose of this research aims to guidelines the identity design for high-speed rail stations, which are divided into four steps: 1) Survey and analysis of identity at the high-speed train stations, including subway in Japan and Taiwan. 2) Comparison the perception of the environment by the questionnaire at BTS, MRT BL, Airport Rail Link (AERA1), and MRT PPL in Bangkok from passengers 800 passengers. 3) Survey and analysis the perception of identity at the MRT Blue Line by questionnaires 800 passengers at Wat Mangkorn, Sam Yod, Sanam Chai, and Itsaraphap stations. 4) To analysis with the descriptive statistics and one-way ANOVA. Study and survey of the high-speed rail environment from Bangkok to Nong Khai, then synthesize the identity design guidelines by 12 experts with structured interviews to summarize the conceptual framework for identity design for high-speed rail stations. The results shown that the identity of train stations in Japan and Taiwan is designed based on architectural and historical concepts that align with the local environment, society, and lifestyle near the stations. This design approach is evident at stations serving as significant tourist attractions and in the surrounding environment, including external buildings and nearby public transportation connections, as well as entrance and exit doors to the station. In summary, four types of identities have been identified: 1) The Identity Historical and Architectural 2) The Identity of Culture 3) The Identity from Cartoons and 4) The Identity of Art and Design

Dwarf whipray (Brevitrygon heterura) is a common species found in a local market in the Gulf of Thailand. However, like many other species of stingrays, it is threatened by overfishing and habitat destruction. Therefore, an accurate species identification is crucial because conservation efforts may vary depending on the species. This study aims to understand morphological variation of B. heterura in the Gulf of Thailand by morphometric study and genetic analysis. During October 2022 and February 2023, we obtained 49 samples from research vessels fish landing ports and local fish markets. We observed two distinct groups based on 43 morphological variables/ratios. B. heterura samples from Chanthaburi, Rayong, Chonburi, Samut Sakhon, Nakhon Si Thammarat and Songkla provinces, called “group A," typically have longer snout length than those from Prachuap Khiri Khan provinces, called “group B" according to external morphological characters for species identification. Three morphological variables/ratios were significantly different between groups A and B. Main characters to explain intraspecific variations between group A and group B are further discussed. DNA barcoding based on a fragment of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene were obtain from eight samples of group A and eight samples from group B. Pairwise percent sequence divergence (p-distance) for COI between group A and group B were 0.0-2.5. This study contributes to the understanding of variations of morphology and genetics of B. heterura in the Gulf of Thailand.
