Abstract
The objectives of this research were: 1) To create a prototype of the MixPro AI Color Station: Intelligent Automotive Paint Mixing System, 2) To design a system capable of accurately analyzing color shades from photographs of car parts, and 3) To pilot the system with the target group and gather feedback for further improvement. The sample group used in this research consisted of 10 individuals selected by purposive sampling from Prayoon Kan Chang Garage , Cap Auto Sapa Shop, and the Automotive Technician Department, Vehicle Body and Paint Work Branch, Roi-Et Technical College.The research instruments used were: 1) An evaluation form for the MixPro AI Color Station: Intelligent Automotive Paint Mixing System by experts, 2) A color difference evaluation form for the MixPro AI Color Station: Intelligent Automotive Paint Mixing System, and 3) A user satisfaction evaluation form for the system usability. The findings were presented in a report using description with supporting examples. The statistics used in the research were the mean , percentage , and standard deviation (S.D.) of the quantitative data obtained from the evaluation forms. The research findings revealed the following: 1) The expert evaluation results for the MixPro AI Color Station: Intelligent Automotive Paint Mixing System showed an overall rating at Excellent level (= 4.65,S.D. = 0.49). (2) The results from the color difference evaluation of the MixPro AI Color Station system set, after 20 operational tests, showed a system performance effectiveness of 80%, indicating that the system operates with high stability and accuracy. (3) Overall user satisfaction with the MixPro AI Color Station: Intelligent Automotive Paint Mixing System was rated at the Highest Satisfaction level (
= 4.55, S.D. = 0.65).
