Most rice is consumed as cooked, milled rice, but a small portion is also ground into flour or separated into a starch fraction and used by the food industry as a gluten-free ingredient. This study aims to find out if different types of rice flour and starch, such as white and colored rice, could be used in industry. This study employs green modification techniques to slow down the digestion process by combining polyphenols with starch. Our initial study found that the raw colored rice has a lower glycemic index than other types of rice, such as brown or white rice. Another study that looked at how the quality of colored rice flour was changed by different methods also discovered that out of the six green methods (annealing, heat moisture treatment, ultrasound, pregelatinization, wet-microwave, and dry-microwave). It found that ultrasound improved the polyphenol bioaccessibility in the rice flour and reduced the digestion rate. The pregelatinization process led to the flour having high solubility and an estimated glycemic index. Different techniques affected the flour/starch quality in different ways. Therefore, for further industrial application, it could also be easier to select the method for food product based on their required techno-functional quality of flour/starch. In addition to the modification techniques, this study showed that the high bioaccessible polyphenol content and high polyphenol content in rice greatly slowed down the rate of digestion. This study also open for further exploring the possibility of using high polyphenol agricultural waste to modify starch and flour in a sustainable manner.
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a crucial staple crop that supplies nutritional sustenance for half of the global population (Shao et al., 2018). Moreover, rice constitutes a significant commercial crop in Thailand, with its grains serving as a staple food, and a diverse array of rice types is present throughout the nation (Suebpongsang et al., 2020). Multiple rice types have been developed in Thailand, including colored/pigmented rice and non-pigmented rice, commonly referred to as brown and white rice, which can be utilized in many industries (Yamuangmorn & Prom, 2021). Furthermore, rice is regarded as a naturally gluten-free ingredient. Rice flour or starch can be utilized to create a variety of products, including cookies, bread, noodles, and crackers. Due to the elevated carbohydrate content in rice, most rice products are regarded as having a high glycemic index (GI). The link between polyphenols and digestive behavior has become a topic of attention, particularly for rice and its products. Researchers predominantly conducted comparisons of the features of pigmented rice and non-pigmented rice (with/without eGI) across various areas or types (Tangsrianugul et al., 2019; Verma & Srivastav, 2020; Waewkum & Singthong, 2021). Nevertheless, there remains a deficiency in information regarding the association between endogenous antioxidant qualities and other starch characteristics, which might be further considered for predicting the nutritional value of rice and for enhancing the foundational knowledge necessary for the development of rice products. The versatility of rice flour in industrial applications is primarily influenced by its physicochemical properties and usefulness. Unprocessed rice has limited utility and applicability (Iqbal et al., 2023). Consequently, novel techniques are necessary to enhance the quality of rice flours for further processing. Therefore, this research may offer essential insights for further investigation into select rice varieties and modification techniques for specific industrial applications by utilizing the starch-polyphenols complex concept.

The designing of mosquitoes counting system instrument is presented in this work. The mosquitoes that were counted died in order not to measure duplicate counting data. As soon as the input source counting machine can detect the mosquito, the single trigger signal is transmitted to the IOT system to interrupt the server immediately. The number of real mosquito is not transmitting to the IOT but only a signal to interrupt the server. The server records the number of the interrupt signal with real-time clock. Then the interrupt information will be further handled. The front end counting machine consist of the high voltage generate with the suitable voltage value and electrode distance for the required mosquitoes size. The low trigger pulse signals of the mosquitoes killed by high voltage are sending to the controller unit. Immediately, interrupt counting signal of the number of mosquitoes is sent to the big stream data collection on IOT system by the time stamp technique. Form the measurement results, 10 live sample mosquitoes in a limited space box to fly though the counting machine show that the count results are 100% correct count.

The thesis artwork titled “The Red Mist” presents a narrative adapted from a short story of the same name by Assistant Professor Chatnarong Wisutkul in 2003. The story is set in a future world where people's greed and selfishness have led to a war, forcing them to rely on "breathing machines" to survive in the "red toxic mist." Phakin, a 15-year-old boy, embarks on a journey with a group of refugees. As they pass through abandoned cities, they encounter a boy without a breathing machine who has recently lost his father. Phakin decides to help him, despite objections from others. The boy tries to end his life by shutting off his breathing machine, and when Phakin intervenes to save him, he collapses from inhaling the toxic air. Witnessing Phakin's selfless act, the others are moved and join forces to save both of them. Phakin demonstrates that in difficult times, humans must cooperate and help each other rather than being divided and selfish.

This research aims to develop an automatic gemstone color sorting machine to overcome the limitations of manual color sorting, which can be restricted by speed and accuracy. This study applies deep learning technology to analyze and classify gemstone colors precisely, developing an algorithm capable of accurately detecting and categorizing color shades. An automated conveyor system was also designed to efficiently transport gemstones through the color sorting process, allowing for continuous operation. The sorting machine works by capturing high-resolution images of the gemstones, processing them with software to classify color shades, and directing each gemstone to its designated position on the automated conveyor. Experimental results demonstrate that the automated color sorting machine, integrated with the conveyor system, achieves high speed and accuracy, significantly reducing labor costs and enhancing the efficiency of gemstone color sorting.
