Weapon Aiming System

Abstract

This project aims to develop a conceptual prototype of a weapon aiming system that simulates an anti-aircraft gun. Utilizing an optical camera, the system detects moving objects and calculates their trajectories in real time. The results are then used to control a motorized laser pointer with two degrees of freedom (DoF) of rotation, enabling it to aim at the predicted position of the target. Our system is built on the Raspberry Pi platform, employing machine vision software. The object motion tracking functionality was developed using the OpenCV library, based on color detection algorithms. Experimental results indicate that the system successfully detects the movement of a tennis ball at a rate of 30 frames per second (fps). The current phase involves designing and integratively testing the mechanical system for precise laser pointer position control. This project exemplifies the integration of knowledge in electronics (computer programming) and mechanical engineering (motor control).

Encapsulation of Anthocyanins in Spray-Dried W/O/W Emulsion

This study aims to investigate the encapsulation of anthocyanins in water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsions and their spray-drying process to enhance anthocyanin stability against external factors such as light, temperature, and pH changes. The W/O/W emulsion was prepared using suitable surfactants and dried using a spray dryer at an inlet temperature of 120–140°C and an outlet temperature not lower than 80°C. The results showed that the composition ratios of water, oil, and surfactants significantly influenced the physical and chemical properties of the emulsion, as well as the encapsulation efficiency of anthocyanins. The spray-dried W/O/W emulsion demonstrated effective anthocyanin retention and improved long-term stability, making it applicable for food and health-related products.

Blood Cell Classification

This project has been developed to address medical challenges related to the process of counting and classifying blood cells from samples, a task that requires both time and high precision. To reduce the workload of medical personnel, the developers have created a platform and an artificial intelligence (AI) system capable of automatically classifying and counting cells from sample images. This system is designed to assist medical laboratory technicians by enabling them to work more efficiently and accurately, reducing the time required for analysis. Furthermore, it promotes the advancement of medical technology, ensuring effective usability from classrooms and laboratories to hospitals.

Nanocellulose innovation for the beauty industry

Agricultural products and by-products are important raw materials in various industries including cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Agro-based fibers have the composition, properties and structure that make them suitable for uses as composite-cosmetic industry. Upon microwave digestion, cellulose have been successfully synthesized into nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) with lengths from 50-1000 nm, widths between 5-70 nm. Nanocrystalline cellulose was grafted with cosmetic active ingredients such as glycerin), sodium hyaluronate), glycolic acid, and nicotinamide. The beauty active ingredients attached nanocelluloses can penetrate through the skin to enhance beauty and youth.
