Room Finder ITB — LINE Bot for Campus Rooms
A LINE bot that translates ITB room codes into human-readable building names, helping students find their classrooms faster.
Overview
Campus room codes at ITB (Institut Teknologi Bandung) are cryptic strings that don’t tell you which building to go to. Room Finder ITB is a LINE chatbot that maps these codes to actual building names and locations — covering all Ruang Kuliah Umum (general lecture rooms).
Students send a room code like RK TIMUR 2 to the bot and get back the full building name and location instantly.
