With the aging of the population and the trend of family coreization,the proportion of empty nesters has been increasing,and the problem of elderly people living in empty nests has become a difficult point and concern of the society.Empty nesters must not only face physical aging,but also face emotional problems caused by living conditions and psychological factors.How to use information technology,especially smart wearable devices,to help empty nesters solve physical and psychological problems,and to achieve a good experience of empty nesters in life,sleep,sports,emotions,etc.,is already a hot topic in design disciplines..The development of big data technology and artificial intelligence technology provides a new feasible idea for the design and research of empty nest elderly monitoring psychological changes and improving negative emotions.Firstly,through the research methods of literature reading and theoretical comparison analysis,this paper expounds the definition and development of emotional psychology,the causes and manifestations of emotions and the scientific theoretical basis of musicinduced emotions,and then analyzes the current application and development of wearable devices.And features as well as technical support for major wearable devices.According to the in-depth explanation of the theory of emotional psychology and wearable devices,the music emotion design model was designed,and three emotion adjustment methods,such as voice encouragement,music playing and going out,were proposed.Through the questionnaire survey of the elderly,the data related to the empty nest elderly were filtered out,detailed data analysis was conducted,and the urban empty nesters were interviewed to learn about their specific ideas about wearable devices,music and old age.Then use the research methods in the user experience,including the user role model,top-down clustering users,user scene design,etc.to dig deep into the user's needs,and draw the design strategy of the wearable bracelet.One is to satisfy the empty nest feeling and thinking system.The second is to pay attention to the emotional changes of the elderly,to protect the mental health of the empty nesters,and to enjoy the life of the elderly;the third is to provide a reasonable,flexible and personalized music mode for the empty nesters,in line with their own listening habits;Ergonomic requirements,suitable for the elderly.Combined with wearable technology,the targeted design of empty nesters will solve the problem of psychological level of empty nesters and meet the needs of mental health,so that empty nesters can enjoy the happy life and improve the quality of life in their later years.In today's aging society,it is the responsibility and obligation of designers to closely integrate the needs of empty nesters with contemporary emerging technologies and find reasonable and effective integration points.
