Research

Brain Computer Interface Speller

Ø This project aims to develop a brain-computer interface-based speller that would benefit disabled users or elderly people.

Ø The primary purpose of this work is to develop the Thai language-based P300-BCI visual speller as an assistive technology option for disabled native Thai speakers. An experiment of a checkerboard paradigm with a 8 x 9 matrix layout containing 44 Thai alphabets, 16 vowels and 7 numbers was conducted. Results show that RegLDA with xDAWN outperformed other models on P300 speller performance, achieving cross validation accuracy of 93% and online accuracy of 76%. AIT Brain Lab will continue this project by employing hybrid P300-SSVEP for further improvements in speed and accuracy.

Research

Non intrusive glucose monitoring using Raman Spectroscopy

Ø Non-Invasive Blood Glucose Measuring Using Raman Spectroscopy represents a cutting-edge approach to diabetes management, offering a non-invasive and convenient method for monitoring blood glucose levels.

Ø By harnessing the principles of Raman spectroscopy, this technology enables the detection of glucose concentrations in the bloodstream through analysis of the chemical composition of fingernails. Raman spectroscopy works by shining laser light onto a sample and analyzing the scattered light to identify molecular vibrations unique to glucose molecules.

Ø This technique eliminates the need for painful finger pricks or invasive procedures, providing individuals with diabetes a hasslefree way to track their glucose levels. Moreover, the ability to measure glucose levels through fingernails offers greater accessibility and convenience, as it can be performed anytime, anywhere, without the need for specialized equipment.

Industry Liveness Detection

Ø In collaboration with Rsquare, our research lab is currently delving into the innovative realm of liveness detection.

Ø This project aims to enhance security measures by developing advanced techniques to discern between live human presence and synthetic or replicated representations, such as images or videos.

Ø By leveraging cutting-edge technologies and methodologies, we aspire to fortify authentication systems, ensuring robust protection against fraudulent activities in various domains, including biometrics, identity verification, and secure access control.

Sale x CRM x Telemarketing

Ø Our research project is focused on the development of a sales x CRM (Customer Relationship Management) x Telemarketing system in collaboration with a Thai insurance company.

Ø Combining the power of conversational AI with the expertise of Thai Insurance company on in language solutions, our aim is to revolutionize the way businesses manage customer interactions and sales processes.

Ø The chatbot will serve as a virtual sales assistant, capable of understanding and responding to inquiries in the Thai language while seamlessly integrating with CRM systems. By leveraging natural language processing and machine learning algorithms, our chatbot will streamline sales workflows, automate routine tasks, and provide personalized recommendations, ultimately enhancing productivity and driving revenue growth for businesses operating in Thai-speaking markets.
