This study aims to design and develop an Augmented Reality (AR)-based application for real-time data monitoring of an automatic weather station at PT. XYZ. The system was developed using a prototyping method, involving five key stages: sensor data acquisition via CBOX devices and the Modbus RTU protocol, data transmission through a Flask-based Web API, storage in a MySQL database, QR code-based target image creation using the Vuforia Engine, and a 3D visualization interface developed with Unity integrated with the Vuforia SDK on Android devices. The system successfully received and stored weather data—such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed—into the MySQL database. The AR application also displayed a stable 3D interface panel over QR code markers, providing real-time data updates through an HTTP-based mechanism. This research demonstrates the successful integration of SCADA, Flask, MySQL, and Unity, enhancing both the functionality and commercial appeal of PT. XYZ’s weather station products. Future research should focus on field testing, cloud network integration, and device compatibility.

The development of information technology, particularly the use of smartphones, has changed human activity patterns and significantly impacted the education sector. The "one-stop-shop" concept reflects the use of mobile devices as centers for various activities, including learning. This situation drives the need for innovation in the development of adaptive and interactive learning media. One solution that can be developed is an Android-based mobile application using Flutter, which can increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the learning process. The Association of Multimedia and Information Technology Professionals (PPMultindo), an organization focused on technology, has developed an Android-based learning platform. This platform is designed to provide flexible access to materials, support interactivity, and facilitate collaboration between educators. Features such as learning analysis, material recommendations, and automatic evaluation are expected to improve the quality of the learning experience. However, the implementation of this technology still faces various challenges, including limited technological competence of educators, inadequate infrastructure, and adjustments to curriculum needs. Therefore, collaborative efforts are needed to optimize the use of mobile technology to support educational transformation in the digital era.

Despite its cultural potential, Wetabar Village has not been supported by effective digital promotional media. Information access remains limited, and the lack of interactive promotional platforms has contributed to the low interest of tourists. Current promotional efforts rely heavily on conventional methods, resulting in decreased visitor numbers. The implementation of digital technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR) and Web-based 360° Virtual Reality Tours is considered an effective approach to increasing tourist engagement by offering immersive exploration experiences and interactive cultural content. This research aims to design and implement a web-based tourism promotion media that integrates local cultural content with AR and 360° virtual tour technologies. The development process follows the MDLC research method, utilizing the Lumi H5P platform and PHP for system implementation. The resulting system enables users to digitally explore Wetabar Village through panoramic views and interactive multimedia features. The findings show that the developed application runs smoothly on both Android devices and laptops and is capable of providing hotspot access to operate the virtual reality features. This innovation is expected to enhance tourist interest while supporting cultural preservation and promoting digital transformation within the tourism sector of West Sumba.
