Research On The Emotional Design Of Elderly’s Memory-aid Product

With the increase of age,the physical function of the elderly gradually declines.The decline of memory function is the most obvious,which has seriously affected the daily life of the elderly.This has increased the demand for memory-aid products to a certain extent,and the market Some of the products suitable for the elderly cannot meet the special needs of elderly users.Therefore,in order to address the problem of memory aging,the elderly memory aid products are designed to propose new design ideas.This subject is adhering to the emotional design theory,targeting the elderly,and designing memory-aid products.First,summarize the emotionalization theory,sort out the related knowledge of emotional design,analyze the three aspects of shape,function,and experience based on the emotionalization theory,refine the key points of emotional design,and discuss the characteristics of memory aging,from the level of memory decline of the elderly,aging characteristics and influencing factors are summarized.Using a variety of user research methods,on the basis of quantitative and qualitative research on elderly users,mining the characteristics of typical users and extracting user needs.Analyze and discuss from the three levels of elderly users’ clothing,food,housing and transportation,medical health,leisure and entertainment,and extend the emotional design theory to the design of elderly memory aid products.Caring and other design principles,and summarize related design strategies.Finally,the previous theoretical methods are applied to subsequent design practices,and design cases are evaluated through eye movement experiments to explore users’ design preferences for product appearance,and obtain the overall satisfaction of elderly users with the product.Through the research on this topic,we can solve the various difficulties of the elderly in daily life,meet the physical and emotional needs of elderly users,improve the quality of life of the elderly in their later years,relieve the pressure of social pensions,and promote the design and development of memory aid products to promote fitness Development of the aging product industry.
