Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 工業設計學系碩博士班 === 95 === The accident has been one of primary causes of the death in Taiwan all the time, especially in motorcycle accident. And the mobile telephones are much popular in recent years, it is very common that people are using the mobile telephone while riding the motorcycle. In December,1996, Congress Legislative Yaun approved “The road traffic administration punish regulations ”.It forced riders and passengers must wear helmets while riding motorcycles, and there are three kinds of motorcycle safety helmets, standard type, jet type, and full-face type on the market. Therefore, this study is mainly discussing the hearing effects of the different form safety helmets. The hearing effects are conversation quality and sharp degree of environmental sound in the riding motorcycle situation. The research used in experimental study, each experimenter must test the conversation quality and the sharp degree of environmental sound of different safety helmets. The expectation can find out the influence on the motorcycle riders’ sense of hearing while having conversations in wearing different safety helmets. It will offer the designing relevant reference of allocating blue-tooth earphone safety helmet in the future. The results find out that the form of the safety helmet will not influence the performances of judging the horns’ direction, because they do not have significant differences. There is no interaction between the form of the safety helmet and conversation in this experiment, but they have significant differences in conversation and the performances of judging the horns’ direction. Therefore, we can conclude that on the sense of hearing, the influences of the conversation are much more than the form of the safety helmet. The full-face type safety helmet is better than other two kinds of forms obviously. In the form of the safety helmet, if we want motorcycle riders to perceive the sound of horns easily and having good conversation quality. It is suggest that wearing the full-face type safety helmet. We hope final result can provide the criterion and suggestion for the design reference in the safety helmet manufacturer.
