Development of Mobile Based Application for Balinese Lontar Image Transliteration

Abstract

AKSALont is an application that can automatically transliterate the digital image of Lontar Bali into text data format in the Latin alphabet. Seeing the broader needs of the AKSALont application, it was deemed necessary to develop a mobile application version of Akasalont that remains integrated with the main web-based application. This paper presents the detail development process of mobile based application of AKSALont. Three main development phases are presented. Software design phase consists of software architecture design and software interface design. The software implementation modules for AKSALont mobile application consists of three sub-modules namely image cropping module, machine interconnection module, and mobile application interface module. Several black box testing scenarios were performed to test the software. Results show that the mobile-based interface of AKSALont is successfully integrated into interconnection with the main web server and machine of AKSALont.
