The Design of Mini CNC Assembly Simulator Based on Virtual Reality Toolkit (VRTK)

Information and communication technology development today has provided the latest innovation in didactic world. One of such innovation is the usage of virtual reality (VR) as learning media. The application of virtual reality in learning environment started to be adopted because VR is considered more capable to explain learning material when compared with other learning material. Moreover, learning with VR has the capability for student to learn independently anytime and anywhere. One of VR utilization in learning environment is to use it in a Mini CNC machine assembly simulator. The learning media is meant to be used to improve student skill in assembling a Mini CNC machine independently. This research uses Research and Development method with waterfall model which has several stages which are communication, planning, modelling, construction, and deployment. However, this research only aims up to construction stage, because this research focuses on media functionality test. The media black box research has shown that the media is capable to function as expected.
