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

Metallic nanoparticles embedded in cellulose nanocrystal (MNPs/CNC) films were prepared by solution casting for antimicrobial and fungus in edible peel fruit. MNPs/CNC was synthesized by ultrasonic waves. The as-synthesized was characterized by the chemical characteristics by the transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), zeta potential analyzer, and UV-visible spectrophotometer. MNPs/CNC films had high potential in antimicrobial and fungus. Therefore, MNPs/CNC can be used to wrap edible peeled fruit to inhibit the growth of microorganisms, which can effectively extend the shelf life of fruits.

Ultrasonic cleaning tank is a machine that many factories widely used to clean objects. At one factory, a problem occurred in the cleaning process, resulting in the factory not being able to clean objects, but cracks also appeared on some objects. It was anticipated that these were caused by uneven acoustics pressure distribution which resulted in unsuitable cavitation This directly affected cleaning performance within the tank. In order to improve the tank's efficacy, in this research, we use Harmonic Response Analysis in ANSYS simulate simulate the occurrence of acoustic pressure in the tank to find the appropriate conditions of factors affected the intensity and the distribution pattern of acoustic pressure in ultrasonic tank, including the position of object, power, ultrasonic frequency and a suitable type and placing position of the transducer for the tank. Reliability of the simulate results was validate by the actual result from the foil corrosion test and the ultrasonic power probe. We found that objects receive different pattern of corrosion at each location. When temperature increasing the intensity of cavitation was increased. When we increase the ultrasonic frequency, acoustic pressure that is evenly dispersed throughout the tank.

This Project has been undertaken to address the need for skill development and knowledge enhancement in pneumatic systems and automation control, which are crucial in today’s manufacturing industry. Pneumatic systems play a vital role in various production processes, including machine control, automated devices, and assembly lines. However, the Department of Measurement and Control Engineering currently lacks a laboratory dedicated to the study and experimentation of pneumatic systems due to the deterioration and lack of maintenance of the previously used equipment. This has resulted in students missing the opportunity to practice essential skills required in the industrial sector. The authors of this thesis recognize the necessity of reviving and developing a pneumatic laboratory that can effectively support teaching, learning, and research activities. This project focuses on studying and developing industrial robotic arm control systems and pneumatic systems, integrating modern technologies such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and AI Vision. These systems are intended to be applicable to real-world industrial contexts. The outcomes of this project are expected to not only enhance the understanding of relevant technologies but also aim to transform the laboratory into a vital learning hub for current and future students. Furthermore, this initiative seeks to improve the competitiveness of students in the job market and support the development of innovations in the manufacturing industry in the years to come.
