The advent of laparoscopic surgery has increased the need to incorporate simulator-based training into traditional training programs to improve resident training and feedback. However, current training methods rely on expert surgeons to evaluate the dexterity of trainees, a time-consuming and subjective process. Through this research, we aim to extend the use of object detection in…

In this paper, we have developed a gas injection-type prefabricated lifting device based on location tracking to efficiently lift the human body in the event of an accident that occurs underwater on the sea or land. The efficiency of the lifting system is very important to ensure the golden time of the rescue and the…

In the context of adopting cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), prospective consumers need to consider a wide array of both business and technical factors associated with the service. The development of an intelligent tool to aid in the assessment of IaaS offerings is highly desirable. However, the creation of such a tool requires a robust foundation of…

Daily life is characterized by a great explosion of abundance of information available on the internet and social media. Smart technology has radically changed our lives, giving a leading role to social media for communication, advertising, information and exchange of opinions. Managing this huge amount of data by humans is an almost impossible task. Adequacy…

An ensemble method is a Machine Learning (ML) algorithm that aggregates the predictions of multiple estimators or models. The purpose of an ensemble module is to provide better predictive performance than any single contributing model. This can be achieved by producing a predictive model with reduced variance using bagging, and bias using boosting. The Tree-Based…

In this work, our contribution will intervene to reduce the impact of noises on the ECG signals. Various ECG denoising approaches were tested to see how efficient they were in removing dominant noises that add to pure ECG signals. Due to different causes such as interference, muscular noise, body movement related to breathing, and so…

Many designs for robot arms exist. Here we present an affordable revolute arm, capable of executing simple pick-and-place tasks. The arm employs a double parallelogram structure, which ensures its endpoint angle in the plane of the upper arm remains fixed without the need for additional actuation. Its limbs are fabricated from circular tubes made from…

In a challenging and increasingly technological world, it is important to promote critical thinking, multidisciplinary problem solving, and collaboration through STEAM education; however, there are important economic, administrative, and especially pedagogical manage- ment limitations for its implementation at the secondary level. Therefore, this paper presents systematic recommendations for an effective and sustainable implementation of STEAM…

The increase electricity production based on renewable energies sources responds to the requirements of sustainable development. In recent years, the investment in the wind energy sector has increased to satisfy green electricity generation and environment protection. Wind energy is currently the most competitive energy resource that is part of the world’s countries views on the…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are becoming increasingly popular for both civil and military applications. Unmanned aerial vehicles can be categorized into two categories: rotary-wing and fixed-wing. Due to its capacity to fly long distances and carry substantial payloads, fixed-wing UAVs are gaining popularity and are currently utilized for various tasks. However, when confronted with disturbances…

The human resource development of robotics and automation in the smart factory is an important factor in “Thailand 4.0” roadmap, which is following the industry 4.0 model. To pursue this goal of Thailand 4.0 roadmap of labor development, the effective and intuitive training system must be easy to understand. This study proposes the implementation of…
