Smart Jaundice Diagnostic System

Smart Jaundice Diagnostic System

Abstract

Jaundice, a common condition in infants that results from high bilirubin levels in the blood, often requires early diagnosis and monitoring to prevent severe complications, especially in newborns. Traditional diagnostic methods can be time-consuming and subject to human error. This study proposes an approach for real-time jaundice detection using advanced image processing techniques and machine learning algorithms. By analyzing images captured in RGB color spaces, pixel values are extracted and processed through Otsu’s thresholding and morphological operations to detect color patterns indicative of jaundice. A classifier model is then trained to distinguish between normal and jaundiced conditions, offering an automated, accurate, and efficient diagnostic tool. The system’s potential to operate in real-time makes it particularly suited for clinical settings, providing healthcare professionals with timely insights to improve patient outcomes. The proposed method represents a significant innovation in healthcare, combining artificial intelligence and medical imaging to enhance the early detection and management of jaundice, reducing reliance on manual interventions and improving overall healthcare delivery.

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.

Dream High Packaging Protection from Mycelium

In a world increasingly focused on sustainability and reducing environmental impact, DreamHigh is pioneering an innovative approach to packaging solutions using mycelium—a natural, biodegradable, and renewable material derived from fungi. Our mission is to revolutionize the packaging industry by offering eco-friendly alternatives that not only reduce waste but also align with global efforts to combat climate change. Mycelium packaging offers a compelling alternative to traditional plastic and Styrofoam packaging, which contribute significantly to environmental pollution. It is fully biodegradable, compostable, and capable of breaking down in natural environments within weeks, leaving no toxic residues behind. Additionally, mycelium-based products are lightweight, durable, and customizable, making them suitable for a wide range of applications, from consumer goods packaging to protective shipping materials. DreamHigh’s business plan outlines a scalable production process leveraging advanced mycelium cultivation techniques and partnerships with local agricultural sectors to utilize agricultural waste as a key raw material. This not only ensures cost-efficiency but also supports a circular economy by repurposing waste that would otherwise be discarded.
