Description
Summary:Tourism is an integral part of human life, especially concerning social and economic activities. Thus allowing tourism to be the world's largest service industry. Tourism development at this time not only on natural or cultural tourism, but tourism has developed science and technology which is called the Science Park. Many countries use the Science Park to promote the results ofinnovation, development of science and technology transfer. In Indonesia, however, such as Taman Pintar Yogyakarta was designed and built with a purpose: to provide a means of learning for students, to motivate children and young people to love science, and providing alternative tourism science. Taman Pintar Yogyakarta as a place of education tourism in the current demand of the tourists. In the year 2008 � 2009 increase in the number of visitors reached 897.82%, the year 2009 to 2010 increase in the number of visitors to be 11.93%. Number of visitors Taman Pintar in the last three years experienced a slowdown. Slowing this needs serious attention,if this happens continuously,did not rule out the number of visitors will decrease. Slowing the increase number of visitors at the Taman Pintar Yogyakarta can be caused by several possibilities one of which is:the material or the pavilion no new or changes. This led the visitorsare reluctant to return. On the other hand, physics is a science that can be packed into the learning materials or content platforms, such as telemetry. Telemetry has been designed and fabricated as a vehicle of learning on the Taman Pintar Yogyakarta with the results:temperature and humidity measuring tool that has been made in accordance with the value of measuring temperature with athermometer brands Lutron difference in the average measured value (0.10 ± 0.05)0C and difference between the average value of measuring humidity with a hygrometer brands Barigo (0.43 ±0.16)%, range telemetry in the chamber reaches 15 m, explanations and theories telemetry system physically explained with animations, to facilitate the learning tool is equipped with the appropriate menus.
