This special project aims to develop and compare the performance of gold price prediction models using quantitative variables and news text data. The study incorporates nine key predictors, including Brent crude oil prices, WTI crude oil prices, silver prices, platinum prices, the U.S. Federal Reserve's policy interest rate, the Nikkei 225 index, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the S&P 500 index, and daily news articles from Bangkok Business News. Relevant news data will be processed using Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques and integrated with three predictive models: Gradient Boosting, Machine Learning Models, and Regression Analysis. The model performance will be evaluated using three key metrics: Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and the Coefficient of Determination (R*). This research aims to develop a predictive model that effectively utilizes both quantitative variables and news data to enhance gold price forecasting, providing valuable insights for investors and analysts.

This study aims to develop alginate-based hydrogels reinforced with carrageenan and gellan gum as composite materials for oral drug delivery. Alginate, a naturally derived polymer from brown algae, forms a gel upon exposure to cations such as calcium ions, enhancing the hydrogel’s structural integrity. Carrageenan and gellan gum, both polysaccharides, further improve stability and encapsulation efficiency. This research investigates the physical properties, mechanical strength, encapsulation capacity, and swelling behavior of hydrogel beads under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. The findings are expected to demonstrate that incorporating carrageenan and gellan gum enhances the durability and stability of hydrogel beads while enabling controlled release of active compounds in the gastrointestinal tract. These advanced hydrogel beads hold significant potential for applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries as effective oral delivery systems for bioactive substances.

The development of skin-on-a-chip models plays a crucial role in research for drug and cosmetic development. Traditional approaches often utilize two-dimensional (2D) methods that rely on culturing cells on flat surfaces, resulting in a lack of complexity in skin structure and realistic cell interactions. Moreover, traditional methods have limitations in mimicking fluid flow and nutrient circulation, which affects the accuracy of pharmaceutical testing and the prediction of drug effects. This has led to the advancement of three-dimensional (3D) skin models using new microfluidic technology, enhancing the realism of skin structure by replicating both the epidermis and dermis layers, as well as simulating fluid flow similar to physiological conditions in the human body. The design of 3D systems allows for more realistic cell arrangement and interactions, enabling better simulation of skin functions and increasing the accuracy in evaluating the effects of various substances on cell responses, including absorption, inflammation, and wound healing. Therefore, the development of three-dimensional (3D) skin models not only addresses the limitations of traditional methods but also represents a significant step forward in creating models that can be effectively applied in drug testing and pharmaceutical product development.

The project of game development to educate about Egyptian civilization This is intended to be a game to promote learning about ancient Egyptian civilization. The original learning may feel boring. Do not attract the attention of learners Therefore saw the presentation in the form of a game on virtual reality technology that inserts knowledge history With the aim of making learning more interesting The organizers can choose to use Unreal Engine 5.1 (Unreal Engine 5.1) and Oculus Quest II (Oculus Quest2) to develop. Within the game, players must find a way to escape from this room within the specified period of solving puzzles in various forms such as statues, traps, etc. In order to solve puzzles and leave this room, players must collect all the information inside the room. In addition, the game shows the life of the player and when the player cannot solve the puzzle correctly.

This research focuses on the design of a Metaverse Prototype Thai Film Archive (Public Organization) to study immersive experiences. The aims were to: 1) examine design concepts and technologies for digital immersion, 2) create and showcase these designs in the Metaverse cinema, and 3) evaluate the results and formulate knowledge for virtual exhibition design using qualitative research methods, including prototype testing with participant interviews to assess satisfaction. The design principles consisted of architectural, exhibition, and user experience concepts, leading to a virtual world creation process involving 3D structural modeling, interactive functionalities, and exhibition layout before prototype testing. The evaluation included tests by ten participants and group discussions on overall experience, cinema content value, Metaverse design, and educational enhancement in museums. The design evaluation indicated a 70% positive overall experience, with half of the users finding stable usability. However, significant viewing barriers were identified, with a high need for operational instructions and navigational aids. Content understanding and Metaverse interaction were perceived positively, and the educational aspect was highly valued. The study concludes that while the overall experience was good, technology limitations (as of 2023) and interaction challenges require ongoing refinement to improve stability and usability, although the educational value was affirmed as strong.

The project "30 Days Harvest" is inspired by the significant role agriculture plays in human society, particularly in providing food for consumption. However, farmers often face numerous challenges arising from environmental issues. The developers chose to highlight these problems through the creation of 30 Days Harvest, aiming to raise awareness among players about the impacts that farmers must endure, while still ensuring the game is enjoyable. The game also offers players the opportunity to think critically and devise strategies to deal with various challenges on their own. When the game starts, players take on the role of a farmer who must manage their farm to harvest the highest yield possible. The produce can be used to prepare meals or sold to customers within a limited timeframe. The goal of the game focuses on maximizing profits, which requires careful planning and analysis to overcome environmental obstacles. Additionally, players must ensure that their agricultural production is sufficient for food preparation. Along the way, they will also learn about the environmental impacts affecting agriculture.

This research project focuses on the design and development of a Manual Control Robot using Load Cell technology to enhance precision and reduce the time required for robot control. The use of automation robots in industries still presents challenges due to the complexity of programming and control. Therefore, developing a manual control system that responds to force input in all directions can significantly improve the efficiency of robots, making them more suitable for tasks requiring precise and intricate control. The study integrates Load Cell sensors, an HX711 amplifier circuit, and an Arduino UNO R3 to develop a control module that translates user-applied forces into commands for an RV-7FRL-D industrial robotic arm. Additionally, MATLAB is utilized for processing Load Cell data to analyze and optimize the robot’s movement accuracy. The results demonstrate that the developed system effectively reduces robot setup time while simplifying and improving control flexibility. This project represents a crucial step in enhancing the capabilities of industrial robots, allowing for seamless human-robot interaction through a manual control system that directly responds to user-applied forces.
