Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Implementación de un prototipo de sistema automatizado para control de acceso mediante reconocimiento facial para el aula STEAM de la Universidad Católica de Cuenca, Extensión La Troncal.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-11-12) Yadaicela Toledo, Anthony Yair; Orellana Parra, Marcos Giovanny; 0942350596This study focuses primarily on the design and testing of an automated prototype for access control based on facial recognition technology, intended for implementation in the STEAM classroom at the Catholic University of Cuenca, on San Pablo de La Troncal campus. The system is proposed as an alternative to the current manual registration process, which aims to automate ongoing administrative processes. Traditional methods have proven impractical, as manual control tends to be slow, insecure, and prone to human error. In response, an automated system that influences technological advances in automation is proposed to provide greater speed, security, and reliability in data recording. The proposal aims to overcome the limitations of paper-based or basic digital records, which often lacks accuracy and efficiency. Consequently, a functional prototype that integrates Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT) is presented to enhance access management in academic environments, while also offering an intuitive interface adaptable to future institutional requirements.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo de una plataforma web para la gestión eficiente y transparente del proceso de adopción de animales.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-11-11) Alcivar Nuñez, Gianni Alessandro; Jara Obregon, Luis Stalin; 0955455449This thesis aims to design and develop a web platform that manages the animal adoption process in the canton of La Troncal. A quantitative approach and a descriptive research method were used to diagnose the current situation of animal abandonment and the technological limitations in the area. Based on this diagnosis, a functional system was developed using WordPress and Elementor. This system allows potential adopters to access verified information about available pets and communicate directly with those in charge of the process. The website architecture was designed to offer intuitive navigation, informative content, and an efficient adoption process. In conclusion, an easy-to-use and feasible technological tool was created to promote responsible pet adoption, facilitate the dissemination of information about animals in vulnerable situations, and strengthen animal welfare in the community.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo de un sistema informático para el control y seguimiento de producción avícola bajo normas de Agrocalidad.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-10-31) Cedeño Leon, Ana Gabriela; Vega Abad, Cesar Remigio; 0302957394This research presents the development and design of an information system, the Production Management System (SIGEPROD). It aimed at automating the control and monitoring of poultry production in compliance with current Agrocalidad regulations. As an alternative to manual recordkeeping, the study proposes a centralized solution for managing productive and sanitary information, facilitating evidence generation and strengthening decision-making processes. The study is propositional in nature and employed an experimental–applied approach supported by documentary analysis. The analytical method was used to analyze regulatory and functional requirements, supported by modeling tools such as UML and the entity–relationship schema. The system integrates both administrative and operational modules and incorporates validation mechanisms and role-based access control to ensure security and traceability. The results showed that digitalizing processes improves data consistency, reduces errors associated with manual recording, and accelerates the generation of verifiable audit information. Consequently, SIGEPROD demonstrates technical feasibility and provides a scalable and sustainable solution for the poultry sector.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Modelo basado en redes neuronales convolucionales (CNN) para la detección y clasificación de la moniliasis en el cacao.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-10-30) Lozano Ochoa, Daniela Lissbeth; Rodriguez López, Manuel Guillermo; 0928933787Moniliasis, caused by Moniliophthora roreri fungus, is one of the main diseases affecting cocoa production in Latin America, leading to significant losses. Early detection of this disease is crucial for implementing effective control strategies and minimizing economic impact. This article presents a model based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) for automatic detection and classification of moniliasis in cocoa pods using digital images. A total of 2,000 images of healthy and affected (moniliasis) cocoa were collected and preprocessed using data augmentation, data standardization, and resizing techniques. The model was trained with a sequential CNN architecture, including convolutional, pooling, flattening, and dense layers, optimized for binary classification. The model's performance was evaluated using precision, sensitivity, F1 score, and confusion matrix metrics, achieving a maximum accuracy of 98.3% in training and 99% in validation. The above results show that CNNs are effective tools for the automated identification of moniliasis, providing farmers with a technological resource that facilitates early detection and improves decision-making in crop management. This study demonstrates the great potential of artificial intelligence in precision agriculture, contributing to the sustainability and productivity of cocoa in Ecuador.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo de una aplicación de realidad virtual para mejorar el aprendizaje interactivo en estudiantes de educación secundaria en el cantón la troncal.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-10-29) Jama Macao, Jhinson Oswaldo; Rodriguez López, Manuel Guillermo; 0303124887This thesis presents the design and validation of a Virtual Reality (VR) prototype developed in Unity, aimed at enhancing mathematics learning in high school school students in the canton of La Troncal, using the Meta Quest 2 VR headset. The proposal arises in response to recurring classroom problems, such as low student interest and difficulties in understanding abstract content through traditional methodologies typical of the exact sciences. The study corresponds to applied, descriptive-propositional research. An immersive environment was developed, designed as a virtual classroom integrating three interactive modules: a scale for solving equations, a quiz on geometric concepts, and a timed race. A pilot test was conducted with a sample of 17 high school students to validate the prototype, collecting their perceptions through evaluation instruments. The results showed high usability (~88%), a perceived improvement in mathematical understanding (~94%), and high levels of motivation and immersion (~88%). However, mild to moderate cybersickness was identified in approximately 41% of participants. The main limitations include a small sample size, the short session duration, and the need for adequate technological infrastructure. The study recommends strengthening teacher training in the pedagogical use of VR, developing comfort protocols, expanding the prototype’s content, and conducting more rigorous assessments. The project won third place at Expo InnovaTech 2025, standing out for its innovation and potential educational impact.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Diseño de un sistema de control de calidad con redes neuronales para clasificar guineo según su estado.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-10-28) Llangari Peñaranda, Jerick David; Vega Abad, Cesar Remigio; 0957152804Manual classification of bananas (Musa Cavendish) is prone to errors and subjectivity, leading to economic losses in the agroindustry. This paper presents a quality control system based on convolutional neural networks for classifying bananas according to their condition through computer vision. The system distinguishes between two categories: “Good” and “Bad.” A ResNet18 convolutional neural network with transfer learning was used, trained with images photographed in a controlled environment. The model was integrated into a desktop application developed with OpenCV and Tkinter, enabling real-time classification using a webcam and incorporating HSV pre- filters to improve detection. The evaluation metrics showed an accuracy level above 90%, thus validating its performance. The system reduces human intervention, improves quality inspection, and serves as an effective prototype for future larger-scale implementations in the food industry.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Diseño e implementación de una red inalámbrica mesh alimentada con energía solar para proporcionar acceso a internet en la comunidad rural “normita” del cantón La Troncal.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-10-27) Pino Carrillo, Román Alberto; Orellana Parra, Marcos Giovanny; 0302861927The main objective of this thesis is to design and implement a functional prototype of a mesh-type wireless network powered by solar energy, applied to the rural community of “Normita” in the La Troncal canton, using an Action Research approach. The development of the project emcompassed all stages, from the diagnosis of connectivity needs to the installation and evaluation of the system, following a cycle of diagnosis, planning, action, and evaluation. Field data were collected through surveys, which confirmed the presence of a significant digital divide and a high demand for Internet access within the community. Based on these initial findings, a network architecture was designed with a redundant backbone (mesh) and a hybrid power system (electric grid and solar). This system was implemented and tested in real-world conditions. The technical tests demonstrated stability, high transmission capacity, and automatic switching in case of failures. Moreover, the satisfaction survey conducted after implementation revealed a positive user perception regarding the usefulness and the service quality. The results indicate that the prototype represents a technically feasible and socially relevant solution that helps reduce the digital divide in rural environments. Likewise, it establishes the foundation for future expansion and could be replicated in other communities with similar conditions, contributing to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 4 and 9) related to quality education, innovation, and sustainable infrastructure.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Diseño de un Sistema informático para la gestión del Talento Humano mediante la programación ágil SCRUM.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025-10-27) Rivera Jácome, Vicente Alexander; Vega Abad, Cesar Remigio; 0302540869This thesis primarily aims at designing a computer system for human talent management, using the agile Scrum methodology. The proposal seeks to optimize administrative processes related to talent management. For this reason, the system development focuses exclusively on the conceptual design stage, excluding software implementation. To this end, Scrum was applied as an agile framework, where the design process was organized into short testing cycles, which allowed for gradual improvements to the requirements. As a result, a detailed design of the system, called SITATH, was obtained. This system enables the generation of certificates and documents faster and more efficiently while ensuring compliance with the previously identified requirements. This establishes the foundation for future implementation and enhances the efficiency of human talent management processes within the organization.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Estudio de Startups en la nube para innovar la producción agrícola en el Ecuador (IOT.

The prototype of the clinical laboratory management information system is made up of three main modules: the patient management module, the test management module, and the results management module. Each module is designed to fulfill a number of specific functions, such as patient information management, test information management, and test results management. The prototype of the clinical laboratory management information system was implemented using software development technologies such as PHP-JAVASCRIPT-HTML-CSS. The tests carried out demonstrated that the system is functional and meets the user's requirements. In conclusion, the development of a prototype information system for the management of a clinical laboratory is a relevant and highly important issue today. The implementation of an efficient and reliable system will allow a better management of the laboratory, which will translate into a higher quality of service provided to patients.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo de un Sistema de Gestión Académica para un Centro Educativo de Idiomas en La Troncal, Ecuador(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Fajardo Vélez, Marlon Jonnathan; Rodriguez Lopez, Manuel Guillermo; 0941317018This thesis discusses the importance of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in educational institution management, such as Corenglish. Although standard ERP systems can help manage these institutions, customized software is needed to meet the specific needs of each organization. In the case of Corenglish, they currently use an Excel register that is vulnerable and inefficient; therefore, they must implement an academic management system to improve their running. In the Ecuadorian context, the School Control Management System was implemented to enhance the management of grades in the country's public institutions. However, due to the drastic change in the grades management and the lack of teachers' technological preparation, a program to update their knowledge and the application of new teachers became necessary. In order to solve this problem, it is relevant to consider the theoretical construction of the curriculum of the educational communities and to couple new technological tools positively. Furthermore, questions were formulated to decipher the problem, such as the specific needs of Corenglish in academic management and how new technologies can be integrated into education successfully.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Startups de Innovación: Estudio de aplicaciones informáticas para optimizar el suministro de productos a domicilio.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Medina Muñoz, Jonathan Enrique; Orellana Parra, Marcos Giovanny; 0350135026Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Startup e Innovación Tecnológica: Ecosistemas de Innovación para mejorar el rendimiento de negocios Agro-comerciales en La Troncal(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Verdugo Ortega, Adriana Nicole; Jara Obregón, Luis Stalin; 0302951611Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Análisis de técnicas de Deep Learning para la identificación y clasificación de cultivos.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2022) Torres Gutama, Hover Hernán; Jara Obregón, Luis Stalin; 0301797692Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Estudio comparativo de servicios de Streaming de video: Ott e Iptv.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2022) Loja Gutama, Fabián Alfredo; Orellana Parra, Marcos Giovanny; 0106427552Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Sistemas de Información en la gestión de procesos de las Pymes comerciales del Cantón La Troncal.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2022) Torres Gutama, Juan Luis; Jara Obregón, Luis Stalin; 0301677662Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , El Modelo Mosca como estrategia para la evaluación de Software Educativo: estudio de caso Solve elecv2.5.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2022) Sevilla Sanango, Davis Jefferson; Orellana Parra, Marcos Giovanny; 0302568704Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Eficiencia de la movilidad urbana del cantón La Troncal usando herramientas computacionales.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2022) Gómez Llerena, Erika Katherine; Rodriguez Lopez, Manuel Guillermo; 0943020362Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Empleo de herramientas Tic Lúdicas: caso práctico Minecraft Ingapirca(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2018) Rosado Tito, Kleber Stalin; Orellana Parra, Marcos Geovanny; 0920387883En esta investigación se realizó un estudio implementando Minecraft Education Edition como herramienta lúdica que da soporte a las entidades educativas a diversificar su forma de enseñanza, tales son los casos de paises desarrollados que lo llevan a cabo, pudiendo generar conocimiento, motivación y comunicación entre docente y alumno, dando un giro al ámbito tradicional para convertirse en uno de total interacción Con enfoque educativo. Para ello se conoce que Minecraft es un videojuego de construcción con modos de supervivencia y creatividad, el que incluye su versión educativa Minecraft Education Edition, en la que los estudiantes pueden construir estructuras mediante bloques en un entorno de exploración y recolección de recursos u objetos con distintos usos. Se presenta en esta investigación el uso de modo supervivencia del caso práctico Ingapirca, como enseñanza- aprendizaje, en donde el jugador tiene acceso a descifrar los retos, objetivos que el mundo virtual le ofrece, y permitiéndole a sus participantes resolver problemas en equipo e individual. Alumnos de los cursos de Octavo a Décimo grados usaron la herramienta educativa relacionada a la materia de Historia, para proceder al análisis de los contenidos y objetivos implicados con el uso de esta herramienta TIC lúdica para la mejora del rendimiento y el éxito durante el proceso escolar. Dentro de los resultados principales se tiene que de los Cursos mencionados: el uso de herramientas lúdicas no atiende a un grupo con coherencia teórica consolidada dada la profundidad del término y en relación con el uso del mismo, pues es superficial, con un encuentro instrumental en su manejo teórico y práctico. Tomando la lúdica como un comodin, adaptable a diversas situaciones.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Estudio de los indicadores claves de desempeño en las pequeñas empresas usando técnicas de Datamining.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2018) Segarra Abad, Fabián Andrés; Rodriguez Lopez, Manuel GuillermoLas técnicas informáticas se han convertido en un instrumento clave para analizar y optimizar los procesos organizacionales de los negocios, por tal razón ha ocupado un lugar esencial, convirtiéndose así en una herramienta eficaz y de rentabilidad para las empresas. El uso de las herramientas tecnológicas dentro de la vida comercial permite el procesamiento integral, analítico y expansivo del negocio, permitiendo delimitar las fortalezas y las amenazas dentro del contexto empresarial, al permitir la fluidez e intercambio de la información; lo que facilita la construcción y exploración del conocimiento desde otros enfoques más completos y exhaustivos de la empresa. La implementación de herramientas digitales es un recurso esencial para el desarrollo de las micro empresas del cantón la Troncal. A este suceso permite expresar patrones útiles y recónditos dentro de los datos. Las técnicas de datamining buscan la comprensión de datos mediante técnicas de comprensión de conocimiento en grandes volúmenes de datos los cuales pueden ser de tipo especifico. Entre ellas se localizan la generalización, agrupación, asociación, entre otras. Siendo entonces este estudio de tipo exploratorio y de observación participativa, determinando como falencia esencial del mismo la ausencia de un sistema de información con servicios analíticos de datos, datamining o inteligencia de negocios enfocándose de forma específica en la toma de decisiones, Lo anterior ha provocado el poco aprovechamiento de las ventajas competitivas y de las oportunidades de negocios acorde a los distintos enfoques y contextos de los comerciales mediante el uso eficiente de las herramientas tecnológicas.
