Product innovation design integrating bionic shape and extension innovation method
In order to assist designers to perform innovation and stimulate divergent thinking,a product innovation design method was proposed based on bionic shape and extension innovation method.A bionic sample database was established and the bionic object was determined by image similarity and functional similarity.The representative target product samples were decon-structed.The correlation model between design elements and design objectives was constructed by quantification-Ⅰ theory.The elements with high contribution to the design objectives were selected for extension modeling.Based on the bionic object,the ex-tension model was expanded and transformed to generate the ideas.Fuzzy comprehensive evaluation was used to evaluate the quality of the ideas.A process of product innovation design method was formed generation integrating shape bionics and extension innova-tive methods.The method was verified with the debris search and rescue robot as an example.This research showed the method was helpful to produce innovation scheme,could provide guidance for divergent thinking and valuable insights for designers.
