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

The objective of this experiment was to determine the effect of nitrogen and potassium concentration combination with photoperiod on the growth of Viola in a plant factory to increase the quality of the products, reduce the production time and increase the production cycle throughout the year. The experimental plan was 3x3 Factorial in CRD with nine treatments and three replications (six plants per replication). The factor of this study was two factors; the first factor was three different concentrations of nitrogen and potassium in ratios of 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1. The second factor was the application of different photoperiods. There were 1) 24-hours photoperiod, 2) 8-hours light/16-hours dark photoperiod (Induced flowering state: 13-hours light/11-hours dark photoperiod) and 3) 5-hours light/3-hours dark photoperiod. Controlled temperature at 25 °C, the EC=1.5-2.0 mS/cm and the pH=5.8-6.5 in all treatment. The result showed that the concentration of N: K in the ratio of 1:1 combined with 24-hour photoperiod was the most vegetative growth and also maximizes reproductive growth. The overall great sensory evaluation was an acceptable level and suitable for cooking or decorating dishes. Therefore, the concentration of N: K in the ratio of 1:1 combined with 24-hour photoperiod is the best treatment to increase the quality of the product, reduce the production time of viola flowers in each cycle from 90-100 days down to 43-45 days which is good for farmers.

This project presents the development of an automatic recycling machine for plastic bottles and cans, utilizing Machine Learning for packaging classification through image processing, integrated with smart sensor systems for quality inspection and operation control. The system connects to a Web Application for real-time monitoring and control. Once the packaging type is verified, the system automatically calculates the refund value and processes payment through e-wallet or issues cash vouchers. The system can be installed in public spaces to promote waste segregation at source, reduce contamination, and increase recycling efficiency. It also provides financial incentives to encourage public participation in waste management. This project demonstrates the potential of combining Machine Learning and smart sensor systems in developing accurate, convenient, and sustainable waste management solutions.
