Judul: Design of wireless controller system on four wheels drive tractor equipped with image guiding techology of wireless camera
Abstrak: Traktor roda empat pengendali jarak jauh merupakan traktor konvensional yang telah dimodifikasi dengan menambahkan sistem remote pengendali jarak jauh berupa modul antarmuka SPC wireless gamepad serta kamera nirkabel sebagai pemandu citra bagi operator yang mengendalikannya. Tujuan dari penelitian ini ialah melakukan modifikasi sistem pengendalian serta menambahkan kamera nirkabel pada traktor roda empat mini Kubota B6100. Pada penelitian ini, daya minimum untuk steering ialah sebesar 22.87 Watt, tuas akselerasi ialah 0.31 Watt, sedangkan untuk tuas kopling ialah sebesar 17.54 Watt. Pengendali kopling pada penelitian bertujuan untuk menghentikan laju traktor di lahan dan memudahkan untuk pengendalian transmisi. Modul remote control digunakan untuk mengendalikan traktor dan menerima transmisi data video dari kamera nirkabel pada traktor. Kotak controller pada traktor digunakan untuk menerima perintah dari remote control pada operator dan terdiri dari komponen-komponen pendukung. Fungsi kamera nirkabel pada penelitian ini ialah untuk membantu operator dalam memantau kondisi di depan traktor dan menghindari halangan.

Abstrak: The research dealt with the development of wireless control tractor operation based on SPC Wireless Gamepad Interface module. Two operation were controlled, those were steering of tractor and operation of throttle. Steering was controlled using DC gear motor 38 Watt. Mechanism to rotate the steering wheel was using pulley and timing belt. Mechanism to control throttle was using linkage mechanism. Several sensors were attached to the tractor, those were obstacle detection sensors and turning angle sensors. Ultrasonic sensors for obstacle detection, measure the distance of obstacle in front of the tractor. The distance can be measured by ultrasonic sensors between 2 until 300 cms. This system was controlled by a microcontroller unit. When there was an obstacle in front of a tractor ≤150 cm, then buzzer will ringing. The ringing of buzzer indicate that the tractor within danger. To know turning angle of tractor used linear potentiometer through results recitation of ADC (Analog to Digital Converter). From the test result shown that ADC data was linear when tractor turn to the left or to the right. It was can be seen from equation Yleft=0.0282X+885.8 and Yright=-0.266X+885.8. Similarly, control throttle mechanism was also installed linear potentiometer to determine percentage of throttle, the test results showed that the linear equation Y=-0.838X +916.8. The maximum range of tractor controlling system with SPC Wireless Gamepad Interface module was 125 meters.

Judul: Mercury Toxicity and It’s Effect on Histopathology Change of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
Abstrak: Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is one of fish species that oportunity to contaminated with mercury. The effects of pollutants can damage living organisms organs and can cause death. The effects caused mercury had acute or chronic character. The aims of this study are to determine threshold and acute toxicity of mercury chloride (HgCl2) of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), to assess the effect of mercury chloride (HgCl2) on several biometric parameters (survival, growth rate of average daily weighted, liver condition, bile and reproductive variability of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), assess the level of damage to the histological structure of the gills, liver and kidney of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) caused mercury chloride (HgCl2) exposure. This study was conducted from February to June 2013. Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were used in this study were female with average weight 20 grams or 11-13 cm length range. Toxicant materials used in this study was mercury chloride (HgCl2). Fish were reared in each aquarium 60x40x30 containing 48 liters of water. This study consists of three stages: a preliminary test, acute test, and sub-chronic test. To determine the changes in biometric condition of tilapia approximated by measuring the survival rate (SR), the growth rate of average daily weight , the content of mercury in the fish organs, hepatosomatic index (HSI), the relative bile volume (VER), gonadal soamtic index (IKG), fecundity and oocit diameter, tissue damage caused by mercury in fish organs by making histological preparations stained with hematoxylin and eosin. The median lethal concentration (96 hr, LC50) of Mercury Chloride was calculated as 1,64 mgL--1.The survival rate was highest in the control treatment (46,67 %) . Mercury chloride with concentration 0.196 mgL--1 show significant effect to changes HSI and relative bile volume, and oocyte diameter of Nile tilapia (p < 0,05). Mercury chloride with a concentration of 0,164 mgL-1 and 0,196 mgL-1 have not a significant effect on the growth rate of weight, gonadal somatic index and fecundity of Nile tilapia (p > 0,05). Mercury chloride cause damage to gills (hyperplasia, hypertrophy, proliferation and neukrosis), liver (hyperplasia, hemorhage, shrinkage of hepatocytes, proliferation and neukrosis) and kidney (hyperplasia, hemorrhage, shrinkage of the glomerulus, proliferation and neukrosis).
