Design Of Travel Aid Products Based On The Travel Behavior Characteristics Of The Elderly

With the acceleration of urbanization and the continuous development of industry,it is every designer’s responsibility not to be forgotten how to provide for the aged in an increasingly strong country and society.Considering the design of travel assistance products based on the travel behavior characteristics of the elderly is to cope with the travel difficulties of the elderly caused by the change of family structure in the context of population aging,and it also provides a new design idea and scheme for the market of travel assistance products for the elderly.This project strictly follows the standard steps of product design: Preliminary analysis-user research-identify the target user demand analysis,user behavior modeling-design a mind map-competing goods analysis-design sketch-design-user feedback,combined with ergonomics,design psychology,product design principles,integrated multidisciplinary knowledge such as design,adhere to the principle of a,namely the design walker products suitable for the old People’s Daily travel behavior characteristic,help line products become the elderly will travel...Indispensable companions.The ultimate goal is to enrich the elderly’s later life,alleviate the emotional lack caused by physical disability,and truly go out of the house and integrate into the society.Therefore,it is of great social significance to study this topic.It is mainly discussed from the following aspects:1.By analyzing the physiological and psychological characteristics of travel of the elderly,the travel ability of the elderly is preliminarily determined and the group of the elderly is subdivided,and the actual travel needs of the elderly are explored according to their special travel psychological characteristics,so as to construct the functional framework of product demand.2.By analyzing the functions and characteristics of the existing categories of travel AIDS on the market,master the design elements and principles of travel AIDS for the elderly,and conclude the necessity of the design of travel AIDS based on the analysis of the travel behavior characteristics of the elderly.3.By analyzing the process of urbanization and urban and rural living environment compared to in the future development of urbanization in the background as well as exchange of "user-product-environment" three auxiliary travel system,the target users from passive recipients of product functionality into the product design of common participants even the decision of the product function,and complete the design of the walker products as a direction.4.Track and analyze the situation of target users using the walker products,draw the product service blueprint,and analyze the travel pain points of the target elderly.To meet the needs of target users and put forward effective solutions to evaluate the feasibility of the design scheme from the perspective of target users and enterprise market.The research results show that considering the travel behavior characteristics of the elderly to design travel assistance products can enable designers and related design companies to focus on the real travel needs of the elderly,and return to the design that truly serves the travel of the elderly from the novel design that complies with the market trend.This paper will provide a new design scheme for the design of travel assistance products for the elderly,and take the product to better adapt to the travel behavior characteristics of the elderly as the starting point and end point of the design product,which is of great significance for promoting the travel assistance products to better fit the needs of users.
