Smart system for tracking raising rate of crickets using infrared camera

Smart system for tracking raising rate of crickets using infrared camera

Abstract

In raising crickets for meat consumption, the growth rate and growth period of crickets are important data used to identify the number of crickets per breeding area at each age. Therefore, the researcher has an idea to create a system for monitoring the growth rate of crickets in a closed system using an infrared camera combined with computer image processing to study the growth and identify the growth period of crickets at each age in order to obtain knowledge that can be disseminated to farmers to improve the breeding process for maximum efficiency.

Objective

ปัจจุบันจิ้งหรีดถือได้ว่าเป็นสัตว์เศรษฐกิจชนิดใหม่ของประเทศไทยซึ่งทางภาครัฐโดยเฉพาะกรมปศุสัตว์ได้เริ่มมีการส่งเสริมให้ภาคการเกษตรได้เพาะเลี้ยงจิ้งหรีดเพื่อการบริโภคสำหรับการส่งออก และเป็นการตอบรับกับเทรนด์อุตสาหกรรมอาหารใหม่ (Novel food) ตามแนวทางขององค์การอาหาร และเกษตรแห่งสหประชาชาติ (FAO : Food and Agriculture Organization) ซึ่งคาดการณ์เอาไว้ว่าจำนวนประชากรโลกจะเพิ่มขึ้นอย่างต่อเนื่องทำให้ความต้องการแหล่งโปรตีนมีมากขึ้นตามไปด้วย คณะผู้วิจัยจึงมีแนวความคิดที่จะหาสร้างระบบเลี้ยงจิ้งหรีดที่มีประสิทธิภาพ

Ionospheric Total Electron Content Measuring Instrument by Using Single Frequency GPS Satellite

This project presents the development of a single-frequency GPS-based total electron content measurement tool. It applies theories related to total electron content in the ionospheric layer and the measurement of total electron content using GPS time delay to design the single-frequency GPS total electron content measurement tool. The tool consists of an antenna, a single-frequency GPS satellite receiver, a data processing unit for evaluating and calculating total electron content, and a display unit for showing total electron content data. The performance of the single-frequency GPS total electron content measurement tool is tested by comparing it with total electron content data obtained from the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) model, which is a global reference model for electron content. The tool is also put to practical use. The results of the comparison and practical applications conclude that the single-frequency GPS-based total electron content measurement tool can be effectively utilized, with the difference from the IRI model being 50 TECU
