Today, the problem of aging society increasingly serious health problems of older persons are also increasingly subject to everyone’s attention. How to make life of older people become more secure, better quality has become an unavoidable topic in today’s society. And reasonable sports for maintaining physical and mental health of the elderly has an irreplaceable role, it can promote elderly health and longevity, slow aging and prevent chronic diseases, improve the quality of life. With the rapid development of Internet technology and science, and now on the market for sports and health care products, more and more functions are more perfect, especially with wearable technology based on a series of excellent products have been widely praised. But in the current environment, the vast majority of such high-tech products are designed for mainstream consumer groups, its design and ignore the increasingly elderly cognitive and learning ability in technology, younger. At the same time the moment older traditional products due to excessive pursuit meet all the needs of the elderly, and doing too much in the design of "fool" and significantly different from the current mainstream product design. This is not only difficult to meet the young state of the elderly nowadays are curiosity for new things, also because of this difference in treatment design, leaving the older user in mind or subconscious of the product of conflict. As the balance of these two issues will be key to the design during the product design elderly. In this paper, the elderly can wear a sports health care product designed for the study, by research and analysis, trying to put forward to meet the needs of the elderly, reasonable and effective design solutions to meet the rapid development of information technology in the current health needs of the elderly who exercise,Thesis points out the shortcomings of the current health care wearable sports products in the design of the aging trend, and pointed out that the elderly do have the necessity and significance of targeted redesign. Followed by user-centered design methods, the use of interviews, observations, questionnaires, etc. for research and analysis of the target users by creating personas method to model the preliminary findings, and thus clear the elderly users of the wearable motion target definition monitoring products, and then by creating scenarios survey analysis scenarios, extraction, analysis and psychological needs of older users functions demand for the product. Then define the goals and needs of the elderly on the user’s specific product corresponds to the proposed movement of the elderly health care products wearable design. In an aging society increasingly serious today, through study of the elderly population and wearable device of such high-tech products, the use of such products designed to improve the user experience, so that the elderly can easily use such products. Not only to promote the development of high-tech industry, but also has some social significance.
