A total of 137 tenants participated in the exhibition of business and technology innovation Young Tech Expo 2019 Study Program (Study Program) Informatics Engineering Faculty of Engineering, University of Muhammadiyah Malang (UMM). They are 3rd and 5th semester students who have innovations that are implemented in the form of product, service innovations, to new prototypes. Held at the UMM Engineering Canteen, Saturday (12/21) morning.
What is interesting, for example, is a health application called SIPINO, a drug information translator system that only scans packaging images (scan packaging). Android-based application made by Oktario Aldila Fachri, Kharisma Muzaki ghufron, and Rahmah Hutami Ramadhani was created to support the health literacy community, specifically knowing the designation, effects and composition of drugs.
Octario explained, health literacy is generally associated with the ability to read and understand prescription drugs. While the results of their research found that the level of public health literacy in Indonesia is still low. With a low level of health literacy, people tend to indiscriminately consume drugs without knowing the effects that will be caused.
"To support the improvement of health literacy and products related to medicines in Indonesia, it can be done by delivering information easily and quickly using information that has been obtained through the official website of the state institution, namely the Food and Drug Monitoring Agency. Our application makes it easy. " said Oktario when interviewed at his group's booth.
No less sophisticated technology made by Billy Aprilio, Yasril Imam and Ulfah Nur Oktaviana, the Integrated Forest Fire Management System or intelligent system that utilizes Artificial Intelligence that is used to detect forest fires. "The way this system works is by utilizing the LM35 sensor and the Flame sensor using Artificial Intelligence as a data processor," said Billy.
Inputs obtained from this system are temperature and flame. "When there is a fire, the sensor will detect it automatically. Next, the system will give an order to pump water to be sprayed to the point of fire. Where water is obtained from making dew water reservoirs using dew harvesting technology using nets or Fog Harvesting.
The exhibition departs from the integration of 4 courses namely Technology-Based Entrepreneurship, Scientific Writing, Ethics and Profession, and Artificial Intelligence. In addition to the exhibition, the seminar also included 2 speakers, Nur Putri Hidayah who presented "How to Create a Labor Contract" material and Arini Rahmawati R., who presented "How do People Work Remotely".
UMM Deputy Rector I Prof. Dr. Syamsul Arifin, M.Si said that this exhibition was a learning model at UMM. That learning does not have to be in the classroom, but also directly involved to solve problems related to the lives of many people. "What is done today, part of preparing early to enter competition in the business world and industry," he said when attending the exhibition. (can)
