碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 設計研究所 === 103 === Many companies in the electronics industry are developing the wearable products in the recent years. The smart glasses is one of the developments. Many companies want to catch up with this trend. They have developed many different forms of smart glasses in different market aspects and technologies. Thus triggering the researchers wants to further explore the form of smart glasses. In this study, the researcher summarized the form of general glasses and smart glasses as for the design reference materials. The researcher also used the past experience of the smart glasses development to redesign a new form of smart glasses. The new ideal was demonstrated by a refined model. And then interviewed with five professional persons who are in the general glasses aspect and the human factors aspect with the refined model. The interviews also include their views of the general smart glasses. Comparing the new design and the general form of smart glasses, the result comes out the positive feedbacks: 1) project screen on the glasses is a good idea then display on a monitor of general smart glasses, it’s much safer than other smart glasses; 2) external battery connect via USB cable is flexible; 3) users are free to choose their favored glasses form; 4) feel not only strong of the glasses form shape, but also comfortable when they put on their face. The interview results comes out the negative feedbacks: 1) the glasses form appearance is not ordinary enough to them; 2) the glasses form appearance is not neutral enough to them; 3) the glasses form appearance is not foldable; 4) lack of join structure for the functional glasses; 5) the power cable position would be batter in the end on the ear hook to avoid interference their activities; 6) it will be great to have more color plan and material plan. At the end of article, the researcher suggests to the companies that attempt to develop the smart glasses in the future: 1) Separate the electronic device and the optics glasses developing. 2) Modularize and unify the spec for the electronic device for smart glasses. 3) Unify the glasses form for smart glasses module. By doing that, the electronic company can focus on the host development, as well as the glasses design company can focus on the glasses from development. So the end consumers will have more choices without facing the conflict of general glasses and the smart glasses.
