Knowledge Sharing School of Computer Science bersama Kumoh National Institute of Technology

Sebagai bentuk komitmen berkelanjutan dalam memperkaya perspektif akademik, School of Computer Science BINUS University kembali menyelenggarakan sesi Knowledge Sharing for Lecturer pada hari Senin, 30 Juni 2025. Kegiatan rutin ini menjadi wadah bagi para dosen untuk memperoleh wawasan mengenai tren riset dan inovasi terkini dari para pakar internasional.

Pada kesempatan ini, BINUS University menyambut kehadiran Prof. Kim Jihyung, Assistant Professor dari Kumoh National Institute of Technology, Korea Selatan. Dalam sesi presentasinya, Prof. Kim membawakan materi bertajuk “AI and Immersive Technology (AR/VR/MR)” yang membahas pemanfaatan teknologi imersif di berbagai sektor di Korea, khususnya dalam konteks integrasi dengan kecerdasan buatan.

Salah satu sorotan utama dari sesi ini adalah pemaparan mengenai proyek riset tahun 2022 berjudul “Mixed Reality-Based Outdoor Training System to Improve Football Player Performance”, yang dikembangkan bersama Asosiasi Sepak Bola Korea. Proyek ini menghadirkan sistem pelatihan berbasis Mixed Reality yang dirancang menggunakan Unity3D dan Mixed Reality Toolkit (MRTK), serta dioptimalisasi untuk perangkat Microsoft HoloLens 2. Sistem imersif ini memungkinkan para pemain sepak bola untuk menjalani latihan situasional tanpa batasan ruang dan waktu secara fisik.

Sistem ini juga memungkinkan pergantian skenario secara dinamis, serta mendukung analisis dan prediksi secara iteratif guna meningkatkan kesadaran situasional dan kemampuan pengambilan keputusan pemain di lapangan. Prof. Kim menekankan bahwa teknologi imersif, bila dipadukan dengan kecerdasan buatan dan model digital twin, mampu memberikan peningkatan performa yang terukur sekaligus membuka peluang baru dalam pengembangan teknologi olahraga.

Melalui sesi ini, peserta memperoleh pemahaman praktis mengenai bagaimana teknologi imersif dapat dimanfaatkan tidak hanya dalam bidang hiburan, tetapi juga dalam pendidikan, pelatihan, dan penyelesaian masalah di dunia nyata. Paparan tersebut turut memicu ide-ide baru terkait arah pengembangan riset dan penerapan teknologi imersif di masa mendatang.

Continuing its dedication to enriching academic perspectives, the School of Computer Science at BINUS University held another Knowledge Sharing for Lecturer session on Monday, June 30th, 2025. This regular event serves as a platform for faculty members to gain insights into current research trends and innovations from global experts.

In this session, we had the pleasure of welcoming Professor Kim Jihyung, Assistant Professor at the Kumoh National Institute of Technology, South Korea. Prof. Kim delivered an insightful presentation on “AI and Immersive Technology (AR/VR/MR),” focusing on how these technologies are being implemented across various sectors in Korea.

One of the key highlights from the session was his discussion on a research project conducted in 2022, titled “Mixed Reality-Based Outdoor Training System to Improve Football Player Performance,” developed in collaboration with the Korean Football Association. The project introduced an MR-based training system built using Unity3D and the Mixed Reality Toolkit (MRTK), specifically designed for Microsoft HoloLens 2. This immersive system allows users — in this case, football players — to engage in situational training unconstrained by physical limitations of space and time.

The system enables seamless switching between scenarios and supports iterative analysis and prediction, aiming to help players improve their situational awareness and decision-making on the field. Prof. Kim emphasized how immersive technology, when combined with AI and digital twin models, can bring measurable improvements in performance and open new possibilities in sports technology.

His session offered practical insights into how immersive technologies can be leveraged not just in entertainment, but also in education, training, and real-world problem-solving — sparking new ideas among attendees about future applications and research directions.
