  • Kansei Approach for the Design of Functional Products for the Elderly
    ISSN 2414-8385 (Online) European Journal of September-December 2017 ISSN 2414-8377 (Print Multidisciplinary Studies Volume 2, Issue 6 Kansei approach for the design of functional products for the elderly Kuo-Hsiang CHEN Shou University Ching-Chien LIANG University of Kang Ning Ya-Hsueh LEE Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology Po-Hsiang PENG Jia-Xuan HAN National Cheng Kung University Abstract Based on the theory of Kansei engineering, this study adopts the methods and steps of user research and divides the whole process into three stages: (1) survey and categorization of functional household items for the elderly; (2) interview with the high-involvement elderly regarding their affective preference; (3) questionnaire survey and statistical analysis of the representative functional household item for the elderly. Early results showed that (1) in terms of product search ratio, mobility assisting and communication products have the highest proportion; (2) in terms of product sales ratio, mobility assisting products reaches 25% and footwear products are the highest among them; (3) interviews with high-involvement elderly show that footwear with 40.8% is the highest demand among functional household items. Therefore, footwear products will be used as example to conduct subsequent study on Kansei preference and affective design for the elderly. Keywords: Kansei Engineering, Functional Products, Elderly, High-involvement, Affective Design Introduction The new wave of retired elderly people are mostly heavily dependent on scientific gadgets in the era of science and technology. Their living style, including diet, social activities, sports and leisure, education and entertainment, etc., is very worthy of further study. In recent years, the demand for elderly products has grown rapidly due to the growth of the 65- year-old population.

  • UK Disability History Month Broadsheet 2020 “We Need to Make Every Single Thing Accessible to Every Single Disabled Person.” Stevie Wonder
    UK Disability History Month Broadsheet 2020 “We need to make every single thing accessible to every single disabled person.” Stevie Wonder In our 11th year we are focusing on Access and asking the questions ‘How far have we come? How far have we to go?’ UK Disability History Month runs from the online launch on the evening of 18th November to 18th December 2020. For disabled people access is now a fundamental human right, as is gaining participation on an equal level with others, regardless of our impairments. Disabled people have struggled for many years to change society’s lived physical and information environment. Only the Struggles of Disabled People have led to Improvements There had been national laws, building codes and standards, partially acknowledging the need for access in the previous 120 years. All of these were fought for by disabled people, their organisations and some non-disabled led charities. People with sensory impairments were in the vanguard, arguing for the teaching and use of Braille, Sign Language, gaining concessions 1 in a minority of mainly higher income countries. In 2013 organisations of Blind and Visually Impaired People campaigned and won the Marrakesh Treaty which made easier the production and international transfer of specially-adapted books for people with blindness or visual impairments. This established a set of limitations and exceptions to traditional copyright law. In the last 40 years, People with Learning Difficulties have fought for access to ordinary education. In the 1990s, Direct Action Network (DAN) chained themselves to buses until the date for accessible transport was brought forward.
