Study on the Application of Kansei Engineering in Product Form Design

Article Preview

Abstract:

Design mode of product form is constructed combining Kansei Engineering (KE) with Ergonomics. KE is used as main technique to transform consumers' feelings and images of shape, size, material, operability of product into design form futures. The main factors and problems of Kansei experiment and Kansei analysis are also identified.Ergonomics acts as the assisting technique for meeting physiological criteria of consumer group. An implement of a product form design was conducted, and then the feasibility of proposed design mode based on KE is discussed which provides related products’ reference to designers.
