The Kansei Study On Form Of Children Accompany Robot

With the development of economics and intelligent technologies,children accompany robot gradually come into people's lives.Compared with traditional children toys,children companion robot's emotional communication is more intimate with children.The improvement of intelligent technology also affects the form changes of children accompanied robot in the robot market.At present,the phenomenon of homogenization of children's accompany robots is common in the market,and the products with high added value are hard to find.In today's intense market competition,the main problem that children's companion robots face is how to enhance their competitiveness through innovative design.In this study,children accompany robot is the research object,use the basic principles and methods of perceptual engineering to explore the relationship between the consumer's emotional image and the children's companion robot form design elements,so that to facilitate design and transformation of consumers' emotional demands in the process of designing a children's companion robot.The main work and achievements of this research are as follows:(1)Market research of Children accompany robot.The status of accompanying robots development at home and abroad was studied.The children accompany robots were collected and sorted,and a sample companion of children accompany robot was established.(2)Analysis of the Form Design Elements of children accompany robot.Analyzed the characteristics of preschool children's physical and mental development as well as the factors that affect the shape design of children accompany robot,summarized the basic principles of children accompany robot's shape design,and applied the morphological analysis method supplemented by user research to analyze the form of children's accompany robot.Identified the morphological design elements that affect consumers' emotional images,including 20 categories under the 6 items of body contour line,display screen,head shape,overall size,color and activity mode.(3)The image space of children accompany robot based on user's emotional appeal is constructed.We collected a large number of adjectives describing and evaluating children accompany robots,and used the method of cluster analysis to screen the sentimental images of children's accompany robots,and establishes the sentimental image space of children's accompany robots based on the user's emotional appeal.(4)Establishing the relationship model between the emotional design and the children accompany robot's shape design elements.After the screening,the children's accompany robots sample and the sentimental image space relationship were surveyed by the semantic difference method.Based on the statistical analysis of the questionnaire results using the quantitative I method,the related category scores,range,constant items,complex correlation coefficients and goodness-of-fit were obtained,and the relationship between user's sentimental image and children's accompany robot Multivariate regression analysis model for correspondence between morphological design elements,then the multiple regression analysis model of the corresponding relationship between the user's perceptual image and the children accompany robot's morphological design elements is established.(5)Model test of the corresponding relationship between perceptual image and morphological design.Fifty subjects were re-selected to perform the sentimental evaluation on the five children's accompany robot verification samples,the obtained subjective evaluation mean value and the verification sample morphological element input onto the relationship model,the predicted value of the paired sample T test results show that the relationship model has good reliability.
