Summary: | Candi is one of the most important cultural heritage which contains a lot of important values for Indonesian peoples. Those important values are being stated in many relief carvings on the Candi’s walls. These relief carvings reflect the values of life that should be applied by mankind. Moreover, relief carvings also reflect Indonesian national history and cultures which is a reflection of the nation’s identity and character. This research intends to design an application named Nirbana. Nirbana utilizes Unity Program as an image, audio, and texts processing software, Vuforia Program as an Augmented Reality processor for smartphones, and Augmented Reality technology as an output media in the form of visual graphics, this entire unit is incorporated into a system called Relief Identification System (SIRel). This application is expected to be a solution for the problems experienced by Indonesian people who have difficulty in accessing information about relief carvings in Candis. Nirbana is expected to be a prototype for every cultural heritage management in an effort to exploit the potency of technology for the benefit of Indonesian cultural education. Moreover, this program is targeted to become a medium to socialize and instill Indonesian noble values to the present and future generations.
