Augmented Reality using Natural Feature Tracking Method to Introduce Science Verses in Qur’an

Technology support for multimedia learning is interesting ways as knowledge transfer to student, including Augmented Reality (AR). Qur’an as main life guidance source for Muslim which not only contains instructions for life but also contains various sciences. Therefore, this study aims to discuss about AR implementation as a technology that can be used as a medium for introducing and learning science verses from the Qur'an. The method used is Natural Feature Tracking (NFT) to detect markers of object. Three Dimension (3D) objects and simulations can help users easily understand the meaning of the science verses of the Qur'an on the marker. The implementation of AR multimedia for learning science verses of Qur’an is developed in mobile-based application with Android operating system using Vuforia. The experiment result showed that NFT can detect all of objects with speed test on 20 markers have an average speed of 0.306 s/marker. Besides, this research conducted the user acceptance with several respondents from students and teachers. The user acceptance test showed that this AR multimedia learning application is accepted by users and can attract interest and make it easier to understand and recognize science verses in the Qur’an by obtaining an assessment percentage of 87%.
