On the Innovative Design of Intelligent Towel Rack for Female Consumers Based on INPD
In order to scientifically identify the types of user needs,accurately obtain the priority ranking of user needs,and objectively evaluate the design solutions,so as to improve user satisfaction with the product,an intelligent towel rack development model for women is established.An empirical study is conducted by introducing the KANO model and AHP method into the INPD product development process.Firstly,the KANO model is used to classify the user's demand attributes in detail.Then the AHP method is used to evaluate the demand weights of each attribute.Finally,the design concept is proposed based on the results of the ranking of these demand weights,and the user demand framework of female intelligent towel racks with high completeness and scientificity is established to complete the optimal design solution that is reasonable,humane and innovative.The product innovation design procedure based on KANO model and AHP method integrated into INPD solves the problem of cumbersome blow-drying process for women,develops intelligent towel racks that are more in line with women's needs,and provides new research ideas for the innovative design of similar products.
