Abstract

The rapid advancement of science and technology encourages dynamic transformation in various sectors, especially in the field of information and communication technology (ICT), especially with the existence of Android-based smartphones. This advancement revolutionizes the way we access information, especially about various processed fish dishes in Indonesia. However, despite the plethora of culinary offerings, travelers often find it difficult to discover traditional dishes through social media platforms. To bridge this gap, a new app that utilizes artificial neural networks has been developed. The app allows users to photograph and upload images of processed fish dishes to recognize and provide detailed descriptions and recipes. In addition, integrating Google Maps makes it easy for users to find nearby places that serve these dishes. Testing the app with a dataset consisting of 1577 images of six types of processed fish dishes yielded promising results, with accuracy reaching 97.57% over 120 epochs. This innovation not only preserves cultural heritage but also enhances the culinary experience for locals and tourists.

Abstract

The utilization of renewable energy has become a strategic priority in supporting sustainable development, particularly in rural areas with limited access to conventional energy infrastructure. This study aims to analyze the utilization of solar energy for street lighting in rural areas of Java, focusing on community perceptions and acceptance. A quantitative research approach was employed using a structured questionnaire distributed to 85 respondents residing in villages equipped with solar-powered street lighting systems. Data were collected using a five-point Likert scale and analyzed with SPSS version 25. The analysis included descriptive statistics, reliability testing, and multiple linear regression to examine the influence of perceived effectiveness, efficiency, safety and social impact, and sustainability on community acceptance. The results indicate that all perception dimensions have a positive and statistically significant effect on acceptance of solar-powered street lighting, with perceived safety and social impact emerging as the most influential factor. Overall, the findings demonstrate that solar-powered street lighting is perceived as effective, cost-efficient, socially beneficial, and environmentally sustainable. This study provides empirical evidence to support the expansion of solar energy-based public lighting as a viable strategy for enhancing rural infrastructure and promoting sustainable energy transitions in Indonesia.
