Abstract

The aging of the population is an important global issue. The care for the elderly is the focus of all professional fields. Designing products that meet the needs of the elderly is an important task for designers today. After interviewing senior citizens, electronic engineers, and shoe manufacturers, this study analyzes the market-oriented shoes and needs of the elderly and related wearable devices, and uses the mobile app to combine with the Arduino single-chip microcontroller to design the shoes for the elderly. The tiny circuit board that detects the distance is hidden in the vamp accessories, warning the elderly to lose and reminding the caregiver. After designing and producing the finished shoes, this study investigates the satisfaction of new shoes through interviews and test-through interviews, and proposes the shoes for the elderly to prevent wear-resistant wearable devices. In addition to preventing the elderly and children from being lost, the finished products are also anti-theft design.

摘要

人口高齡化是全球性重要議題，對於高齡者的照護已是各專業領域的焦點，設計符合高齡者的產品是設計師現今的重要工作。本研究訪談高齡者、電子工程師、製鞋業者後，分析市售高齡者鞋款與需求、相關穿戴式裝置後，利用手機App結合Arduino單晶片微控制器應用設計於高齡者鞋樣，將可偵測距離的微小電路板藏在鞋面配件中，警示高齡者走失，提醒照護者。本研究設計製作鞋樣成品後，透過實測及試穿訪談，調查新鞋樣滿意度，提出高齡者防走失穿戴式裝置之需求鞋款，研究成品除了預防高齡者及兒童走失，同時也是防失竊的設計。
