A Prototype of an Intelligent Rice Contamination Monitoring System on CiRA CORE Platform

This research is CiRA CORE’s technical feasibility study as a domestic industrial application. CiRA CORE can be adopted as the main platform for supporting system for manufacturing process. As the case study of rice milling plant, pertaining to the consequent from post milling process, the impurities separation process is also required, demanding technologies to facilitate such process for the more convenience and the better rice quality. Such technical concept has encouraged and lead to this research project which aims to develop the rice impurities inspection system with deep data analysis via CiRA CORE. Beginning with the image processing of rice grain via webcam in concurrent with the inspection process, the images will be screen captured and send to LINE mobile application to display the inspection results. Therefore, the developed system has been tested based on the actual working condition which is based on the most affectable factor, the light intensity. The user satisfaction is also in GOOD level. In conclusion, the outcome of this research can not only be a CiRA CORE application prototype but also be another development guideline and further domestic industrial applications. The extensive research of this paper can be beneficial to many Thailand’s argo-industries, especially the production of grains, which would be beneficial to the national economy as a whole.
