The Recommendation Augmented Reality: For Maritime Navigation Applications in Indonesia

Abstract

This paper discusses the understanding of augmented reality (AR), types of AR, its current AR use, and reviews the used AR specifically for ship safety navigation. The paper will make recommendations on what type of AR products are possible to develop. The AR can be used to support maritime navigation applications in Indonesia. The method used is primary literature review analysis through Systematic Literature Review (SLR) from thirty articles. Results of the literature review show that four types of AR based on the projection techniques. The types are a marker-based AR (image recognition), markerless AR, projection-based AR (hologram), and super impositing-based AR (object recognition). Currently, in various countries, AR products have begun to be developed for maritime navigation applications such as AR social to determine point of interest (POI), AR navigation, AR safety, and an immersive underwater world. From the literature review analysis results, this paper recommends that the right AR products based on the projection technique are markerless AR and projection-based AR types. However, in the future, it is necessary to make an in-depth study of the need for AR products for maritime navigation in Indonesia. The products include traditional navigation tools, navigational aid, and simulations for marine navigation training and then be implemented so that the AR products for maritime navigation that are produced are truly in accordance with the needs of ship crew and policymakers in Indonesia.
