Abstract

Indonesia is a cultural and historical diversity country. The Indonesian national culture is an analogous multicultural, rooted in older societies and interethnic relations caused the national culture is most easily observed in cities but aspects of it now reach into the countryside as well, for example, capital of Sumatera Utara, Medan. Indonesia’s borders are those of the Netherlands East Indies, though Dutch imperialism caused nation and many of its institutions should be able to preserve and introduce their culture and history to future generations. One way that can be done by involving the development of Augmented Reality. Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that can be developed by creating 3D (Dimensions) of each created object such as a historic place. In this study, the object to be constructed is the 3D object of the historic building in Medan city which is a historic city in North Sumatra. In addition to historical sites there is a city tour service with the location of the historic building nearby with the location point of reference based on the current location. In addition, the user interaction can be done with 3D objects using Augmented Reality technology and information about historic buildings and the use of virtual reality technology in creating 3D visuals of extinct historic locations. This research is expected to attract users of heritage traveller applications and educate the community in preserving the cultural heritage with the help of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technology.
