The anniversary activities were enlivened by a series of events, namely: Industry Talk (20 October 2021), the latest technology seminar; The 13th International Conference on Advanced Computer Science and Information Systems (ICACSIS) and The 6th International Workshop on Big Data and Information Security (IWBIS) on 23-26 October 2021; Virtual Exhibition (2-28 October 2021), featuring all research laboratory products, Fasilkom UI student activities, and the Computer Science Center (Pusilkom).
The peak celebration of the Anniversary (28 October 2021) of Fasilkom UI presented the musical film Sangkuriang entitled KARSA BERSATU ‘SIBI Assisted Musical Cinema Artistic Creation for the Deaf’ whose screening combined the use of technology that can embrace the deaf. This technology is the fruit of a research work from the Fasilkom UI lecturer team, Dr. Ir. Erdefi Rakun, M.Sc. The technology used is an application called KIBI, a translator of Indonesian text into the SIBI movement (Indonesian Sign System), which is capable of translating dialogue and lyrics of songs sung by actors/singers into a three-dimensional animation.
In translating text into SIBI movements, there are two processes, namely building a database of all SIBI movements in the dictionary that stores the coordinates of the fingers and joints of the movements, then analyzing the input sentences which are broken down into sentence components according to the standards applicable to SIBI. .
