Transformasi Novel Dongeng “Nini Anteh” Karya A.s. Kesuma Ke Tayangan Opera Van Java Episode “Nyai Anteh Penjaga Bulan”

The story of Nini Anteh is an oral folklore of Sundanese, which has undergone a transformation into transgenre and translingual forms. Kesuma\u27s novel of “Nini Anteh” and an Opera Van Java (OVJ) episode of “Nyai Anteh Penjaga Bulan” were the data of this study. The theory used in this research is the theory of transformation proposed by Riffaterre. Analysis of the data reveals expansion, conversion, modification, and similarities. Expansion in the OVJ did not appear in the slot, characters, and background for the story was made simpler than that in the novel. Expansion appeared in the variety of media used to invite laughter. Conversion in the OVJ was evident in simplified plot, character, and setting. In addition, the concept of beauty of Nyai Anteh in the novel was entirely changed for entertainment purposes. A gender bias background in the novel was turned into a neutral background in the OVJ. Although both works carried a Sundanese story, they show the notion of Indonesian by modifying the story through the use of characters and equipment in accordance with the modern age. In the novel efforts to build past linked to the life of the present can be seen as an attempt to prompt reflection, while modifications in the OVJ were to invite laughter. Both works share the same description of a woman who then decided to reside on the Moon because of love. What she did on the moon was weaving. These similarities indicate that there are things that would be passed on to subsequent generations, especially regarding the independence of women in producing textiles

Somatic embryogenesis in Mucuna pruriens

This study reports the induction of somatic embryos in Mucuna pruriens. Different explants cultured on MS medium supplemented with 11.31 ìM 2,4-D produced golden yellow embryogenic callus that induced synchronized embryo development on MS basal liquid medium. Organization of pre-embryonic mass was noticed 15 d after sub culturing the callus, which progressively developed to globular, heart, torpedo and cotyledonary shaped embryos. Attempts to germinate them did not succeed as the cotyledonary embryos turned characteristic red and subsequently brown before finally turning blackand unresponsive. The reaction was consistent across different media constituents, hormonal concentrations and pH ranges. Supplementation of anti-oxidants was also ineffective. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic analysis of the brown and non-brown embryos revealed quantitative differences inprotein contents between the two. More detailed study is necessary to establish the precise cause for embryo browning and ways of its regulation

Third Eye for Blind using Ultrasonic Sensor

People with visual disabilities are often dependent on external assistance which can be provided by humans, trained dogs, or special electronic devices as support systems for decision making. The main problem with blind people is how to navigate their way to wherever they want to go. Such people need assistance from others with good eyesight. As described by WHO, 10% of the visually impaired have no functional eyesight at all to help them move around without assistance and safely. This project is designed to help the blind to overcome the lack of visual sense, by using other senses like sound and touch. The system uses Atmega-328 microcontroller, which is a high performance 8-bit AVR RISC-based microcontroller. For sensing the distance the system uses a HC-SR04, an Ultrasonic Range Finder Distance Sensor Module. The sensor module is designed to measure the distance using the principle of SONAR or RADAR, using ultrasonic wave to determine the distance of an object. The system also consists of a buzzer to generate an alarm sound and a motor to generate vibration signals. The system uses audio and vibration signals to notify the user about upcoming hurdle. As the distance between glove and obstacle decreases, frequency of both audio and vibration signals increases. Thus the system helps to ease the navigation process for the needy. This system offers a low-cost, reliable, portable, low power consumption and robust solution for navigation with obvious short response time
