Rotten Fruit Classification for Industrial

Abstract

The development of a fruit spoilage detection system originates from the need to reduce agricultural product losses, a global issue affecting both the agricultural and food distribution industries. Spoiled fruit can negatively impact product quality and result in significant economic losses. The primary goal of this system is to assist in screening and removing unsuitable fruit from the supply chain, thereby preserving product quality and meeting consumer demands for fresh produce. The system was designed to simulate the sorting process by utilizing images as a key factor in detecting spoiled fruit. Experimental results demonstrated high efficiency and rapid prediction capabilities, highlighting the system’s potential for practical applications.

Objective

ระบบตรวจจับผลไม้เน่ามีที่มาจากความต้องการในการลดการสูญเสียผลผลิตทางการเกษตร ซึ่งเป็นปัญหาที่เกิดขึ้นทั่วโลกโดยเฉพาะในอุตสาหกรรมการเกษตรและการจัดจําหน่ายอาหาร ผลไม้ที่เน่าเสียจะส่งผลกระทบต่อคุณภาพของผลิตภัณฑ์และสามารถก่อให้เกิดความสูญเสียทางเศรษฐกิจได้อย่างมาก การพัฒนาระบบตรวจจับผลไม้เน่าจึงมีเป้าหมายเพื่อช่วยในการคัดกรองและแยกผลไม้ที่ไม่เหมาะสมออกจากกระบวนการจัดส่ง เพื่อรักษาคุณภาพของสินค้าและตอบสนองต่อความต้องการของผู้บริโภคที่ต้องการผลไม้สดใหม่

Improving the Quality and Safety of Food Production and Services in the Canteens of KMITL.

The activities of the project's operations consist of: checking microbe on sample food, hygienic condition of cooker, containers and materials, sanitation knowledge and private sanitation and food quality of canteen and cleaning of cooker. The Food Safety Management program collaborated with the Property Management office, planned the operations, and assessed food vendors based on the SAN 20 food safety standards requirements. Using A.13 testing kits, we conducted testing for coliform bacteria contamination in food, containers, equipment, and hand contact surfaces, collecting 6 samples. These included samples such as prepared food, areas in front of the store, and food handlers' hands. Additionally, we used A.11 testing kits to test for coliform bacteria contamination in water and ice. The analysis of results, including physical, microbiological, and chemical aspects, serve as a guideline for improving the quality and safety of food production and service in the institution's canteen.

The study of the chemical and physical properties of chickpea burgers and hybrid burgers with chickpea and pork using the sous-vide cooking method.

The consumption of plant-based products has been gaining popularity as consumers become more health-conscious and aware of environmental impacts. The food industry has been developing meat analogs with properties similar to conventional meat. This study investigates the chemical and physical properties of chickpea-based meat analog burgers and hybrid burgers containing both chickpeas and pork, using the sous-vide cooking method. This technique helps maintain food quality in terms of texture, moisture retention, and nutritional value. The experiment examined various properties of both types of burgers, including cooking loss, water holding capacity, shear force, pH value, and color analysis. Additionally, sensory evaluation was conducted to assess taste, texture, and overall consumer preference. The findings will provide insights into the optimal sous-vide conditions for producing plant-based and hybrid burgers with desirable quality characteristics that meet the needs of health-conscious consumers. This study serves as a valuable guideline for the food industry in developing high-nutritional-value alternative protein products while reducing meat consumption. By incorporating plant-based ingredients, it helps minimize environmental impact and promotes sustainability in food production. The research is significant in both food science and the development of healthier, competitive food products for the future market.

The Development of a Card game to Enhance Learning about Urban Agriculture.

Currently, urban agriculture is gaining increasing attention as it helps enhance food security and expand green spaces in cities. However, some people remain uninterested in urban farming, possibly due to living in urban areas or having limited space, making them perceive agriculture as something distant from their daily lives. The development of an urban agriculture card game aims to promote learning about urban farming through an engaging and enjoyable gameplay experience.
