Jakabaring Sport City (JSC) is an integrated sports facility complex and a public tourist spot in Palembang. Due to its extensive area and numerous facilities, visitors need a map with distinct markers for the landmark to make it easier when walking around. Recent technology advancements and its expanding role in various fields invites the question on how to integrate technology in the tourism industry. This journal aims to create an android-based digital map application with augmented reality (AR) as a guiding medium that will display directions towards the Jakabaring exit gate. This app is built using Maps SDK for Android to build the digital maps, Navigation SDK for Android to run navigation, and Maps for Unity to display AR objects that will show the directions towards the exit. The development focuses on a location-based service using GPS to track the user's whereabouts and provide real-time location data around the user. This application has a location search feature, a guiding direction (route and navigation) to a designed location, and an AR camera feature to display where the JSC exit gate is located. Every feature is working well and able to help users while visiting JSC. However, this application could still be improved in the AR feature because on its current version, it is only able to display directions to the JSC exit gate when users are within a radius of one kilometer or less to the exit.

Semarang dikenal sebagai kota yang unik karena mempunyai destinasi wisata yang dipengaruhi oleh banyaknya etnis yang ada. Selain keunikan pariwisatanya, Kota Semarang juga dapat dipandang sebagai kota bisnis, terbukti dengan menjamurnya tempat usaha seperti restaurant, cafe dan yang paling pesat pertumbuhannya saat ini yaitu hotel. Belakangan ini pertumbuhan hotel di Semarang sudah kian pesat. Hal ini juga berpengaruh kepada para pendatang ataupun wisatawan yang singgah di Kota Semarang. Dari banyaknya jumlah hotel yang ada, bukan tidak mungkin jika para pendatang merasa bingung saat mencari hotel yang sesuai dengan keinginan mereka. Tentunya para pendatang memerlukan aplikasi yang dapat menampilkan lokasi dan informasi lengkap tentang hotel di Kota Semarang. Untuk dapat mewujudkan gagasan tersebut, maka dilakukan sejumlah metode penelitian antara lain studi literatur, mendefinisikan kebutuhan, pengumpulan data hotel pada Dinas Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata Kota Semarang, perancangan dan implementasi aplikasi, serta melakukan pengujian terhadap aplikasi kepada beberapa orang responden. Aplikasi dirancang dengan tujuan untuk memudahkan pengguna ketika hendak mencari hotel di Kota Semarang. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah sebuah channel “SMARTEL” (Semarang Augmented Reality Hotel Location) pada aplikasi Junaio untuk mencari lokasi hotel di Kota Semarang. Basis Augmented Reality dipilih karena sifatnya yang real time saat menampilkan data atau informasi ,serta mempunyai tampilan visual yang interaktif. Channel akan menampilkan POI (Point of Interest ) atau dalam penelitian kali ini yaitu informasi lokasi hotel, yang didasarkan pada lokasi pengguna saat ini berada, atau dikenal dengan istilah LBS (Location Based Service). Dengan adanya channel ini, pengguna dapat lebih mempersingkat waktu dan lebih mudah dalam menemukan dan menuju ke lokasi hotel yang berada di Kota Semarang. Karena SMARTEL masih dalam bentuk channel, maka harapan untuk penelitian kedepannya adalah dapat dikembangkan dalam bentuk aplikasi android (.apk) agar lebih mudah dalam pendistribusiannya.

In mid-2016, the streets of cities around the world were populated by digital wayfarers taking part in the augmented reality (AR) game, Pokémon GO. The game popularized the digital overlay technique of AR, in which real-time pedestrian movement is integrated with mobile location-based functionality and network information. In the years that followed, playing Pokémon GO gradually became a mundane activity, fitting into the everyday routines of millions of people across the globe. It is at this juncture – when the gameplay became a habitual and unremarkable practice – that the research discussed here began. Through ethnographic fieldwork conducted in Badalona in Spain in 2018–2019, this article explores how sedimented and mundane media – those that are already embedded in daily life routines and typical scenarios of use – can become possible conduits for informal care, wellbeing and social change through playful inclusion and connection.

Android is an operating system for Linux based smartphone. Android provides an open platform for the developers to create their own application. The most developed and used application now is location based application. This application gives personalization service for mobile device user and is customized to their location. Location based service also gives an opportunity for the developers to develop and increase the value of service. One of the technologies that could be combined with location based application is augmented reality. Augmented reality combines the virtual world with the real one. By the assistance of augmented reality, our surrounding environment could interact in digital form. Information of objects and environment surround us could be added to the augmented reality system and presented. Based on the background, the writers tried to implement those technologies on now rapidly developing android application as a final project to achieve bachelor degree in Department of Informatics Engineering, Faculty of Information Technology and Visual Communication, Al Kamal Science and Technology Institute. This application could be functioned to locate school by using location based service technology with the assistance of navigational applications such as waze and google maps, in form of live direction process through the smartphone
