“互联网+健康”下的老年可穿戴产品设计策略研究

Research on Wearable Products Design Strategy for Elderly of "Internet + Health"

在全球老龄化、慢性病普遍化等危机作用下,老年人的身心健康问题受到了越来越多人的关注。"互联网+健康"与可穿戴产品相结合,可以实现老年人自主式健康管理,将疾病控制在摇篮中。文章从老年可穿戴产品设计痛点入手,定位新老年群体展开需求分析,通过显性、隐性、潜在需求归类出老年可穿戴产品的功能与管理方式,从而提出功能交互整合性、使用方式通用性、简化操作体验性这三个设计策略,为开拓老年可穿戴产品设计提供一定的理论参考价值。

With the global aging and the prevalence of chronic diseases,more and more attention has been paid to the physical and mental health of the elderly.The combination of Internet plus health and wearable products can achieve the elderly’s autonomous health management and control the disease in the cradle.Starting with the painful points of wearable product design for the elderly,this paper analyzes the needs of the new and old groups,classifies the functions and management modes of wearable products for the elderly by explicit,implicit and potential demands,and puts forward three design strategies,namely,interactive integration of functions,versatility of usage modes and simplification of operation experience.Elderly wearable product design provides a theoretical reference value.
