Research On Product Design Of Aging Based On Demand Level

In this paper,five low-to-high levels of demand theory,which are proposed by Maslow in 1943,from the physiological needs,security needs,emotional needs,respect for needs and self-fulfilling needs in the human needs,combined with today’s design more Emphasizing the need to respect the needs and self-realization of the design point of view,launched a targeted design needs research and product design research.This paper investigates the current situation of social status,age status,population growth status and social concern status of the aged population in China.From the statistical data in 1999,it shows that the trend of aging is increasing to the present situation.Attention,in addition to meet the basic needs of the elderly groups outside the emotional needs,respect for the needs and self-realization of the needs of the community and the design community is more concerned about and more eager to study the focus.There are general problems and shortcomings in the products currently serving the elderly.Most of the products on the market basically have the imperfection of demand,and the products designed specifically for the elderly are basically in the initial stage.Not on the product embodied in the emotional,respect and self-realization on the demand.This study begins with respecting the demand and self-realization demand,starting from the design of the elderly to help the product,from the cognitive and behavior to explore the essence of demand,and this theory combined with the practice designed to effectively improve the quality of life of the elderly Help products.Research from five aspects,the first chapter mainly describes the research background,content,purpose and significance,and summarizes the research methods and framework;the second chapter investigate the development trend of the domestic and foreign products and products of the aging aging problem from the background,content,significance and methods;the third chapter on based on the demand characteristics of the elderly population from the demand level,the demand level of the aging characteristics of the product,and from the cognitive dysfunction and ergonomics analysis and summed up the design basis;the fourth chapter through the previous research results on aging for products to do the deep exploration of design,summarizes the design principles and elements of the last fifth chapters;with the specific design to improve the theory of product design concept,after aging has guiding significance.
