Abstract

Smart-textronics technology which enables functional textiles has recently been applied in various fields such as smart clothes, smart home and smart health care, and a variety of smart-textronics products have been developed. In this context, the smart-textronics product development process is proposed based on the systematic participatory design method in this paper. The proposed method consists of two phases: in-depth interviews and analyzing. In the phase of in-depth interviews, participants are asked to create journey maps that include activities, pain points and emotional status and to generate solution ideas with sketches and simple prototypes. In the analyzing phase, design researchers investigate the participants' journey maps, and create personas by identifying critical characteristics with the behavior pattern analysis. Then, each persona's needs are linked with value elements of the E3 value framework. Finally, pre-survey was conducted to identify smart-textronics market and a smart sofa design is proceeded as the case study to show the applicability of the proposed method.

기능성 섬유를 가능하게 하는 스마트 텍스트로닉스가 최근 스마트 의류, 스마트 홈, 스마트 헬스케어 등 다양한 분야에서 활용되어 다양한 제품이 개발되고 있다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구에서는 체계적인 참여형 디자인 방법을 기반으로 한 스마트 텍스트로닉스 제품 개발 프로세스를 제안한다. 프로세스는 심층 인터뷰와 분석의 두가지 단계로 구성되며 심층 인터뷰 단계에서는 참여자가 사용행위, 행위별 요구조건, 만족도 수준 등을 포함한 사용자 여정맵과 스케치 및 간단한 프로토타입 제작을 통한 아이디어 생성 활동을 수행한다. 이 후 분석 단계에서는 디자인 연구자가 심층 인터뷰 단계로부터 도출된 결과에 행동 패턴 분석 방법을 적용하여 핵심 특성을 도출하고 이를 기반으로 한 사용자 페르소나를 생성하고 각 페르소나의 주요 니즈를 E3 가치 체계의 가치요소와 연관시킨다. 본 연구에서는 사전 설문조사를 실시하여 스마트 텍스트로닉스 시장 파악하였으며, 제안된 방법론에 대한 검증을 위해 스마트 홈 분야에서 가장 많은 사용자와의 상호작용을 갖는 소파의 디자인 사례연구를 수행하였다.
