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

Distributed Control System for Boiler in Sugar Plants

This cooperative education report presents a project for developing a Distributed Control System (DCS) for boilers in a sugar factory. The objective is to enhance the control system for boilers 1-8 to operate cohesively within the DCS framework provided by ABB, utilizing the ABB Ability™ System 800xA software. The overall functionality of the system involves creating a control program that begins with the utilization of bagasse, a byproduct from the sugar extraction process, as fuel for the boiler. The program manages various operations of the boiler, including the intake of air into the combustion chamber, the internal functioning of the boiler, and the treatment of flue gases before their release into the atmosphere. The project encompasses the development of the DCS program, the design and creation of HMI display graphics, the study and design of the boiler control system, the documentation of the project, and the control processes utilizing the ABB Ability™ System 800xA software, culminating in the operational outcomes.
