| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 資源工程學系碩博士班 === 100 === Throughout time, technology has evolved to meet the needs of its consumers, and through the humanization of its design, has made the experience more efficient.
In order to manage energy consumption efficiently in our daily lives, we should utilize the Kansei design to develop the home energy management system (HEMS). However, whether the products and services of HEMS can fully meet the demands and needs of its consumers has become main topic of discussion. By exploring the consumer’s real needs, as well as applying Kansei engineering to build a connection between HEMS’ design parameters and user Kansei words, we are able to develop the best design combination. This research method is divided into the following six parts: 1.Exploring the conflict between modern products and humanity2. The choice of the scope of study sample 3.The choice of Kansei images and words 4.The choices of design parameters and the study sample 5. Conducting experiments 6. Analysis of research results. The results of multiple regression analysis are used to build the connection between Kansei words and design parameters, which are used to seek the best combination of design parameters. For this study, we hope to understand more about the users’ real needs ,to avoid any unnecessary designs. This will allow the product developer to find the suitable design parameter combinations through the use of Kansei words, permitting a more humanized HEMS design.
The research result reveals overall and discusses different attributes of each group, gender, income and ages. Overall, they particularly care about personification. Personification design parameters are influenced by the degree of personality and the controllable amount of home appliance. The degrees of user acceptance to HEMS have a positive effect with the degree of personification and have a negative effect with an invasion of privacy. People with salaries over thirty thousands; put a higher emphasis on personification. People with salaries fewer than thirty thousand mainly focus on being replaceable. For the relative high income, the acceptance of HEMS will increase with the feeling of personification. For the relative low income, the acceptance of HEMS will decrease only if it saves energy. People over forty years old put a higher emphasis on energy consumption. People over thirty years old view personality the most important. This study also reveals the overall and different attributes groups suitable combinations. According the Kansei design for HEMS, it would suggest the best solutions for different opinions.
