디자이니어 양성 커리큘럼 내 융합설계프로젝트 사례: 웨어러블 손목 마사지 기기의 햅틱 디자인

초록

This paper deals with a Capstone Design project which is a wearable haptic wrist massage device design carried out within the ‘Designeer’ education program. Following design thinking process is recommended throughout a year in order to ensure a desirable, feasible and viable product. Dealing with a real problem of the field requires open-minded and flexible attitudes both from students and professors. Integrating design in an engineering project does not mean always making better looking product. User experience design allows wider opportunity to engineers to deal with design. A case study of developing a wearable wrist massage device shown in this paper demonstrate haptic design and how haptic properties can be optimized to offer best user experience of hand massaging. This study identified that starting lateral pressure movements from the center in larger area using air tubes gives better feeling as self-massage using wrist wearing devices.
