Affordance Feature Reasoning in Some Home Appliances Products
نویسندگان
چکیده
Interactions between human and objects are made through specific features of the object, which are adequate to the task context. During interactions, the perceived features vary according to the context. Affordances are the messages that products provide and users perceive in such a way that user actions are naturally induced with the help of such messages. In this research, we define affordance features as structural elements providing affordances. We classify affordance features into functional, ergonomics, and informative aspects. For some home appliances, common affordances and affordance features are identified so that they can be used in designing other products.

متن کاملConsidering impacts and requirements for better understanding of environment interactions in home network services
A home network system (HNS) coordinates various networked home appliances to achieve value-added services. If multiple services are executed at the same time, functional conflicts between the home appliances may occur. These are known as feature interactions (FIs) in the HNS. We have previously defined two kinds of FIs: appliance interactions and environment interactions. Environment interactio...
