Metaverse Virtual Reality-Based Logistics Virtual Laboratory for Superior Indonesian Logistics
Abstract
This study proposes the development of a Metaverse Virtual Reality-based Virtual Laboratory Logistics (ViraLL) as an innovative solution to address the gap between the competencies of graduates from educational institutions and the needs of the logistics industry in Indonesia. The background of this study is the decline in Indonesia's Logistics Performance Index (LPI) and the need to improve the quality of human resources in the field of logistics. The method used is the development of an interactive learning system using virtual reality metaverse technology that simulates real conditions in the logistics industry. ViraLL is designed with three main features: Levelling, Logisticity, and Social Interaction. The expected results are an increase in the understanding and practical skills of logistics students and an reduction in the gap between the world of education and industry. The implementation of ViraLL is projected to support the improvement of the competence of Indonesia's logistics human resources, which will ultimately drive national economic growth. This research also explores the potential for the realization of ideas, public response, copyright acquisition, PKM-KC development, and its impact on education and the involvement of authorities.
