“One of the most prominent gates to Bantul is Jl. Parangtritis. The museum can serve as a new attraction for Bantul,” Bantul Tourism Agency head Kwintarto Heru Prabowo said as quoted by tempo.co.

“The museum invites visitors to learn Javanese history through live digital [platforms],” said the foundation's founder, Elly Halsamer.

Elly said the museum displayed 40 items in five zones that represent Java Island's history and culture. The items are supported by advanced augmented reality and video mapping technology.

The museum is also equipped with a selfie arena called Kampung Selfie Mataraman, as well as a 4D theater.

“The artifacts are presented with modern technology to make them more interactive and less boring,” Elly said.

She explained that the augmented reality technology made the objects look alive as they combined two-dimensional objects with three-dimensional reality, such as the figure of Commander Cheng Ho. (gis/kes)
