Item type:Publication, Linear Variable Differential Transformer Signal Conditioning Circuit Based on Phase-Locked LoopThe purpose of this paper is to propose a novel technique for extracting the position signal from an inductive displacement transducer named a linear variable differential transformer (LVDT). In general, the movement of the LVDT core causes its primary inductance change in linear form. The primary winding of the LVDT is used as a time-dependent element for the triangular and square wave generator, which can be called self-oscillation, to generate frequency. The advantage of the proposed technique is that it can measure the displacement using the LVDT without an external oscillator. The change in primary inductance causes the frequency deviation generated by the oscillator. The deviated frequency is captured and converted into a voltage signal using the principle of the phase-locked loop. All the components used in this study are commercially available. The merits of this proposed technique are simple configuration, small size, and low cost. Moreover, the operating range of the LVDT can be extended without the limitation of the nonlinear transfer characteristic. The performance of the proposed technique is discussed in detail and confirmed by experimental implementation. Experimental results show that the maximum error from the proposed technique is about 0.42% and the operating range of the LVDT can be extended to more than 200%. It can be seen that the proposed technique is suitable for embedded measurement in small or micro robots. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Non-destructive Fertility Detection of Multiple Chicken Eggs Using Image Processing and Convolutional Neural Network(2020-07-30) ;Koodtalang, Wittaya ;Sangsuwan, ThaksinThis paper presents a non-destructive fertility detection of multiple chicken eggs in incubation industry based on image processing technique and convolutional neural network (CNN). The aim of this research were to design and implement the system for simultaneously distinguish multi eggs infertility from fertility one. LED light source setting up for illumining the 48 eggs, consisting of both egg types and randomly placed on a tray in dark box. In addition, a pre-trained CNN is performed to classify fertile and infertile eggs. All eggs is captured and processed to extract a region of interest (ROI) for each egg, generating large ROI egg images dataset which used to train and test the CNN model. A designed system is programmed using Python, operating on Windown7-64bit supported by OpenCV and Keras. Experimental results showed the accuracies for fertile incubated eggs detection between day 7 and day 9 reaches 100%. Meanwhile, eggs location has 100% of accuracy is also observed. Hence, the proposed technique are high reliability, high accuracy system and suitable to use in real application. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
