基于聚类分析在老年易用性产品设计中的应用

APPLICATION OF CLUSTERING ANALYSIS IN THE DESIGN OF USABLE PRODUCTS FOR THE ELDERLY

为了解决老年人群对产品易用性功能满意度低的问题,分析用户使用体验与产品功能之间的对映关系,改良设计符合老年消费人群使用的产品。通过调研,分析现有产品的使用感受,采用聚类分析方法,对产品使用需求元素进行分组、聚类,提取老年人群的需求,分析用户需求与产品造型设计达之间的关系。以老年人群使用的血压仪为例,设计符合老年人群生理特征的产品,从而实现产品的易用性设计。实践结果表明,运用聚类分析方法可以有效提升产品的易用性功能,可以作为产品设计的一种新方法。

In order to solve the problem which is the satisfaction low for the elderly,this paper analyzes the mapping relationship between user needs and product performance,and to improves the product design to meet the the elderly consumers.Through the investigation method,this paper analyzes the problem of the existing products,and uses the cluster analysis method,it is to extracts the needs of the older from the group and cluster of the products, and to analyzes the relationship between the user needs and the product modeling design.Taking the blood pressure instrument used by the elderly as an example,the design of the product is in line with the psychology of the elderly users,so as to realize the ease of use principle design.The practical results show that the cluster analysis method can effectively improve ease of use principle of products,and it can become a new method of product design.
