Research on Guidance Design in Elderly Medical Products Based on Kansei Engineering

Abstract

To study the perceptual needs of the elderly on the guidance of medical product interface, and to put forward effective suggestions for the guidance design in medical products for the elderly. In this paper, the perceptual engineering method is used to analyze the physiological characteristics and psychological characteristics of the elderly such as vision, hearing, perception, and then use questionnaires and interviews to obtain the elderly’s perceptual preference for medical product interfaces. Through quantitative analysis, emotional preferences are transformed into design elements. In the design, the perceptual needs of the elderly were emphasized, and a quantitative model was established for the guidance design of the medical interface for the elderly based on the perceptual evaluation system. Further research has led to guidance design methods that focus on the perceptual needs of elderly users, which can improve the medical experience of the elderly and promote the development of the elderly medical industry.
