Published 2026-10-14

Universitas Muhammadiyah (Unismuh) Makassar has just brought proud news from the international stage. A number of students and researchers from the university showcased various technological innovations they created in Chiba, Japan, at an event that brought together academics and the Indonesian diaspora.

This activity served as a platform for the students to introduce their research results to the wider community, including Indonesians living in Japan. The innovations displayed were diverse, ranging from water quality monitoring technology to assistive devices for people with disabilities.

One of the works that attracted attention was a smart glove specifically designed to help deaf children communicate. This technology is expected to provide convenience for users in their daily interactions by translating sign language into voice or text.

In addition to the smart glove, the Unismuh team also presented more efficient water quality monitoring technology. This innovation aims to help the community maintain environmental cleanliness in a more practical and digital data-based manner.

Unismuh's participation in this event in Japan demonstrates that innovations from Indonesian universities are capable of competing at the global level. It is hoped that this collaboration between academics and the diaspora will open up further opportunities for cooperation in developing technology that is beneficial to the wider community.
