Abstract

Communication is fundamental to human interaction, yet individuals who are deaf or speech-impaired often face barriers due to limited accessibility to sign language resources. This study presents the development of a mobile sign language dictionary designed to enhance communication and learning. Traditional sign language dictionaries, whether in printed or video formats, present challenges in accessibility, usability, and portability. In contrast, a mobile application offers an interactive, efficient, and user-friendly solution. The proposed application integrates gesture recognition, video demonstrations, and text-based explanations to facilitate sign language learning. By leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud-based storage, the app ensures accurate sign recognition and provides a comprehensive database of gestures, including letters, numbers, root words, prefixes, suffixes, and commonly used phrases. A structured methodology involving requirement analysis, data collection, design, development, testing, and revision was applied to develop a functional and accessible tool. User testing demonstrated high engagement and learning effectiveness, with 85% of participants reporting increased comfort with mobile learning tools, 82.5% finding the app beneficial for sign language acquisition, and 90% improving their familiarity with sign words. These results confirm that a mobile sign language dictionary is an efficient educational tool that fosters inclusivity and communication accessibility. Future enhancements, including database expansion, additional sign language dialects, and interactive exercises, can further improve the application’s impact.

Abstract

Students with intellectual disabilities often face challenges in physical education due to limited motor coordination, reduced engagement, and difficulties following traditional instructional methods. To address this, motion-sensing technology, particularly Kinect-based educational games, presents a promising solution by offering interactive and gamified learning experiences. This study explores the development and implementation of a Kinect-based educational game designed to enhance motor skills and engagement in students with intellectual disabilities. The game focuses on throwing exercises, providing real-time feedback through visual and auditory cues to reinforce learning. The study was conducted at SLB-C YPSLB Surakarta, involving 20 students with intellectual disabilities and five special education teachers. A pre-test and post-test evaluation was used to assess students' motor skill improvement and engagement levels before and after using the game. The results demonstrated a 26.3% increase in throwing accuracy, a 26.9% rise in engagement levels, and a significant reduction in reaction time, indicating the game's effectiveness in enhancing physical coordination and participation. Teacher feedback highlighted the game's usability, ability to maintain student focus, and alignment with PE learning objectives. Although the findings showed positive learning outcomes, several challenges, such as the initial adaptation period and the need for a wider variety of games, were identified. Future research should focus on customizing difficulty levels, varying physical activities, and AI-powered adaptive learning to meet the needs of individual students. This study highlights the potential of motion-sensing educational games as an effective tool for inclusive and engaging physical education for students with intellectual disabilities.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the electrical energy consumption index at the R.A. Kartini Regional General Hospital (RSUD Jepara). Electrical energy efficiency is a crucial aspect in the management of modern health facilities, especially in efforts to reduce operational costs and environmental impacts. Hospitals as facilities that operate 24 hours have high energy consumption, especially for medical equipment, air conditioning systems, and lighting. This study uses a quantitative descriptive analysis method by processing electricity consumption data in 2018 obtained from official hospital documents. The results showed that the total installed power at the R.A. Kartini Regional General Hospital Jepara reached 1,410,005 VA, with the largest distribution of energy use in medical devices (51.5%), air conditioning systems (38.7%), and mechanical equipment (20.7%) The hospital's Energy Consumption Index (IKE) was calculated at 146 kWh/m²/year, which is included in the "fairly efficient" category according to Indonesian national standards (180-280 kWh/m²/year). However, there is still room for increased efficiency, especially in air conditioning and lighting systems. The research findings show that the application of inverter technology in the AC system, replacing conventional lamps with LEDs, and optimizing the use of mechanical equipment can result in energy savings of up to 25-30%. This study recommends the implementation of a comprehensive energy management system, including periodic energy audits, increasing equipment efficiency, and educating staff about energy-saving practices. With these steps, RSUD R.A. Kartini Jepara can achieve the IKE target of 102-110 kWh/m²/year, approaching international best practices.

Abstract

Reliable power quality is a crucial factor in maintaining continuity and operational efficiency in industrial power grids. Power quality disturbances such as voltage sags, voltage swells, and interruptions can cause equipment damage, decreased productivity, and increased operational costs. Dynamic Voltage Restorers (DVRs) have proven effective in addressing voltage disturbances, but conventional devices have limitations, specifically, they are only able to compensate for voltage drops up to approximately 30% of the nominal value and cannot address interruption disturbances. This study proposes a modified DVR with the addition of an energy storage system and an adaptive control algorithm to expand the voltage compensation capabilities, including under extreme voltage sags and interruption disturbances. Simulation results show that the modified DVR is able to maintain load voltages close to the nominal value under various disturbance scenarios, thereby significantly improving the power quality and reliability of the industrial power grid.
