Abstract:
Based on the theory of Kansei Engineering, the relationship between the tactile feel of the remote control and the emotional response of the tester was studied. Research on hand-grip perception provided a further understanding of consumers’ emotional response to products, which is a key factor influencing consumers’ decision to purchase. 35 perceptual adjectives for touch were screened, and then based on the tactile sensory vocabulary, a remote control grip sample screening experiment was conducted. The semantic difference analysis was conducted using perceptual adjective vocabulary, and the measurement results were used to design a new remote control shape and compare the hand-held tactile feeling with commercially available remote controls. The touch and emotion were used for the best remote control grip design. The hand-held tactile remote control was a new type of hand-held remote controller that provided users with a new way of interacting with the environment and emotions based on the tactile feeling of the hand. For more than ten years, user experience (UX) has been used to describe the emotions and reactions of users when using products in usage environments. In this study, 20 men and women participated in experiments according. The results showed that the newly designed remote control was appropriate for one-handed operation and the most comfortable tactile sensations. Tactile performance was better than that of commercially available products. By comparing the improvement rates of products, designers can obtain a better reference for modifying product details or making design decisions from the result of this study.
