Abstract

21st Century is getting into Super aging society worldwide basis. Among those population, silver(aged) generation users' physical condition, such as sight, hearing and body, is getting older, especially sight ability which processes 80% of input data, it requires us studying new smartphone GUI designs convergence for the elderly. In light of this social phenomenon, this study suggests smartphone GUI designs convergence guideline for the silver generation through the research of text, icon which are basic elements of smartphone GUI with proper visual attributes. I had inferred UX designs, expert group and evaluation categories from existing papers, related books and designed some displays for the survey. I also offered this guideline with the deep survey of 101 people over 65 years old.

21세기는 전 세계적으로 빠른 속도로 초고령화 사회로 진입하고 있다. 이중 실버세대의 사용자들은 시각적, 청각적, 물리적인 노화가 진행되고 있고, 정보의 80% 이상을 처리하는 시각이 노화함에 따라 GUI 디자인융복합 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구는 스마트폰 GUI의 기본 구성 요소인 색상, 글자(text), 아이콘(icon) 요소에 대해 실버세대를 대상으로 조사함으로써 적합한 시각적인 요소를 도출하여 실버세대의 스마트폰 사용자를 위한 스마트폰 GUI 디자인 융복합 가이드라인을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 선행연구논문 및 관련서적 등의 내용을 고찰하여 UX디자인 전문가와 평가항목을 도출하였으며, 설문에 필요한 화면을 디자인 및 제작하였다. 65세 이상의 고령자 101명을 조사하여 실버세대를 위한 스마트폰 GUI 디자인융복합 가이드라인을 제시하였다.
