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

Garbage sorting Systems

The presented project topic is Garbage Sorting Systems. The purpose is to study the operation and develop a waste sorting system that can automatically detect the type of waste using a proximity sensor to separate the types of metal and non-metal waste, as well as an ultrasonic sensor to check the amount of waste in the bin. If the amount of waste exceeds the specified amount, the system will send a notification to the communication device connected to the system, such as a smartphone or computer. The operation of the system is designed to increase the efficiency of waste management, reduce the burden of manual waste sorting, and promote recycling. This system can be applied in various places, such as educational institutions or public places, to help reduce the amount of waste that is not properly separated and increase the opportunity to reuse waste.

Auto parts stock systems and management

Nowadays, automobiles are the most widely used form of transportation. This increases the risk of accidents. Therefore, car users prefer to get insurance to reduce the risk in the event of an accident. As for the insurance company, the company will be responsible for damages according to the conditions of the policy. One of the duties of a company's claims department is to procure spare parts to control costs. However, in the case of compensation, there may be erroneous operations, such as ordering the wrong parts or ordering more than necessary. Currently, insurance companies do not have a very efficient management system. This research aims to develop a system for managing and storing automobile parts for insurance companies. The system is designed to be able to track the status of spare parts from storage to disbursement. It uses barcode technology to increase accuracy and reduce errors in data recording. Such a system will help insurance companies manage spare parts systematically, reduce unnecessary costs, and increase efficiency in providing services.

The Development of Hand Gesture Recognition for Controlling Electronic Devices

This research will begin with a review of literature and related studies to examine existing technologies and methods for hand gesture recognition and their applications in controlling electronic devices such as drones, robots, and gaming systems. Subsequently, a hand gesture recognition system will be designed and developed using machine learning and computer vision techniques, with a focus on creating an algorithm that operates quickly and accurately, making it suitable for real-time control. The developed system will be tested and refined using various simulated scenarios to evaluate its efficiency and accuracy in diverse environments. Additionally, a user-friendly interface will be developed to ensure accessibility for all user groups. The research will also incorporate qualitative studies to gather feedback from both novice users and experts, which will contribute to further system improvements, ensuring it effectively meets user needs. Ultimately, the findings of this research will lead to the development of a functional prototype for gesture-based control, which can be applied in industries and entertainment. This will contribute to advancements in innovation and new technologies in the future.
