碩士 === 大葉大學 === 設計研究所 === 89 === Life cycles of digital products are shortening in the electronic and information age. The purpose of this study is to grant the product its own form, function and style through renovative product redesign process. At the beginning of concept developement, industrial designers are often lack of goal and systematic approach. The quantities and qualities of design idea often limited by the personal experience of the designer and the habitual domains in life and esthetics. According to such a situation people get used to the specific conditions, it’s quite difficult to generate innovative concepts during product redesign. In this study, we elect the popular consumer product --digital camera as a test vehicle. Through the redesign process, the rules of geometry-form and six-innovate-principle are utilized to generate the possible design configurations. This approach provide a possibilities of faster and more effective way in design to fulfill both the form and the function requirements. The questionaire is conducted at the first step of redesign. Through the statistical analysis we can understand the distribution and the inside desire of user. The correlation matrix between the important design factor are also calculated to investigate the possible reason of unsatifaction in using the test product. After the analysis, the renovation process is carried out. The concepts will be realized by computer modeling, mock-up and full scale model. Then the interview step is carried out with the domain expert. The suggestion will help to refine the final design. The positive response provide the evidance of the susccess of the design.
