Practice on Design Project 1

ASHIZAWA Yusuke Click to show questionnaire result at 2019
Course description
When designing a product, it will not function properly unless we design systems or rules simultaneously as well as the product itself. At this time, in order to design systems and rules, it is necessary to pay attention so that products are used as natural behavior as possible after considering human behavioral characteristics and culture style. In this course, from the viewpoint of acquiring the ability of "overlooking the whole thing and implementing product design", from the observation of human behavior, the discovery of the problem points obtained from them, the preparation of the design proposal and the prototype, the demonstration experiment, the modification from those results, we will do those as a typical design project. The contents will be different each time because this practice is based on the specific project.
Purpose of class
To learn the "concept of overall system design" which is required at the same time when designing products.
Goals and objectives
  1. Can consider and carry out appropriate surveys for making design proposals.
  2. Can create an appropriate design proposal and make a presentation based on various survey results.
  3. Can evaluate their proposals from the viewpoint of "Koto that is japanese original viewpoint."
Language
Japanese
