Abstract:

Bag is an important stuff in daily life, which is used to carry personal necessary articles. The elderly people usually cant distinguish the articles in the bag easily due to the decrease of vision with age. Moreover, because of the poor immunity, the elderly people are easy to be infected by bacteria. The purpose of this paper is to design an elderly-specific bag which can help elderly people distinguish the articles by touch and avoid infection due to the contamination of food and drug by mixed together with money and keys etc. Questionnaires were prepared and given to 80 aged people to determine the stuffs which they usually carry in the bags. After statistical analysis, graphic symbols were designed to characterize the stuffs that the elderly people carry most often in daily life. These symbols were tested by the aged people to determine which is the most suitable to characterize the correspond stuff. After that a bag with these symbols and modular was designed.
