    Objective: This study aims to investigate the factors influencing the behavioral habits of adolescent users regarding the use of smart home products. Theoretical Framework: Smart homes represent an innovative integration of electronic devices within a private home environment, utilizing technologies such as the Internet of Things, automatic control, and network communications to enhance efficiency, energy conservation, and security. This study is grounded in the theoretical framework of technology acceptance models and behavioral intentions to understand the adoption of smart home technology systems among adolescents. Method: Qualitative research was conducted using a structured questionnaire to collect data from 390 users in Zhengzhou, Henan. The data were filtered to eliminate outliers. Descriptive statistics, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling were employed to determine the style and scale of smart home product design and the relationship between user attitudes and usage behavior. Results and Conclusion: The study found a direct and positive relationship between smart home product attitudes and teenage users' behavioral intentions. Additionally, it revealed that user personal capabilities significantly predict the actual adoption of smart home technology systems among adolescents. The findings provide valuable insights for designing smart home technology systems and products tailored to adolescent users in Zhengzhou, Henan, contributing to the advancement of management practices in the field of smart home technology. Originality/Value: This study contributes to the advancement of science in the field of smart home technology by revealing causal factors influencing the acceptance of smart home technology systems among adolescents in Zhengzhou, Henan.

    Development of utilization process of weeds in rice farms is adding economic value and the materials are weeds in rice farms in 22 provinces in central region of Thailand. This research aims 1) to study physical characteristics of weeds in rice farms in central region, 2) to develop production process and transformation procedures, 3) to design furniture for children from weeds in central region's rice farms and 4) to assess satisfaction of consumers with furniture products for children which are made of weeds in rice farms in central region. Procedures to transform weeds in rice farms as wood substituting material start from digesting weeds with size of 1-2 centimeter before sundried and boiled with caustic soda and salt together with guava leaves for 50 minutes. After that, it is composited with isocyanate by using hydraulic compressor with heat at 100 Celsius Degree. Wood substituting material's specific gravity is 0.74 with moisture at 8.84%, module of rupture (MOE) at 5.53 MPa, modulus of elasticity (MOE) at 314.85 MPa, compression stress at 10.54 and compression stress // at 4.96 MPa while hardness of the wood substitute is 3,541.41 N. The analysis result of house of quality which is utility, material and production process where data are transformed as designing function with TRIZ was found that needs of target group are utility, uniqueness, materials, production and reparation process with significance at 5.0. The pattern has been developed in 4 designs for assessing satisfaction in design selection and the result is F(3,326)=20.17, Sig=0.002. This indicates that new design is different among 4 types and the second design of furniture for children has highest mean satisfaction (M=3.88, S.D.=0.76). Therefore, this design is used to produce a prototype. The consumers were satisfied with the prototype of furniture for children at high level (M= 3.61, S.D. 0.93) with satisfaction in utility at high level (M=3.79, S.D.=0.74). It was discovered that mean of pair comparison was statistically significantly different for 2 pairs including price/ utility (Sig.=0.018) and material/ utility (Sig.=0.016). Factors to evaluate utility, price, material and production process can be employed to predict satisfaction with new products with statistical significance level at 0.05. It is also positively interrelated with effectiveness of prediction at 35.55% (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.35). The prediction equation is Å= 0.39 +0.430 X<inf>1</inf> +0.149 X<inf>2</inf> +0.242 X<inf>3</inf> +0.344 X<inf>4</inf>.

    The objective of this research is to design and test a stainless-steel air purifier prototype using electrostatic principles for eliminating dust in outdoor areas. The prototype consists of stainless steel and an electrostatic particle precipitator, a high-voltage direct current source, and a control system. air flow This fan system draws sample air into the system through an electrostatic particle collector for particle charging and sedimentation to improve clean air quality. Test the particle sedimentation performance of the prototype using ANSI/ AHAM AC-standard test methods. 1-2015 with an aerosol particle generator inside a test room size 6×6×3 m. A dust measuring device was used inside the test room. The results of the experiment found that the particle sedimentation efficiency value of the prototype air purifier developed by the prototype air purifier developed Particle sedimentation efficiency was achieved in the test time of 120 minute.
