A Conceptual Design of a Mobile Healthcare Device-An Application of Three-stage QFD with ANP and TRIZ
نویسندگان
چکیده
s This research sets up a conceptual design of a future mobile or portable healthcare device using the quality function development (QFD) with the analytic network process (ANP) and the theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ). We propose a three-stage QFD in order to consider customers’ requirements, extend the whole design process, and calculate the priorities of the left-hand-side elements in the houses of quality (HOQ) by implanting ANP. Some contradictions at the roof of the second "house" are able to be overcome by TRIZ. Going through the integration of the three methods, the analysis results characterize the features and their priorities for the future mobile device. We believe that this conceptual design of the mobile healthcare device can provide a new direction to the healthcare industry.

Research on Application System of Integrating QFD and TRIZ
Customers are ultimate judges of products. In order to produce the world-ranking product, customer information must be embodied in the part of production and hierarchy of control. This paper firstly points out the deficiency of QFD and the superiority of TRIZ. And then it constructs the application system of integrating QFD and TRIZ based on the theoretical rationale of the integration. The mai...
متن کاملA QFD-centred design methodology for environmentally conscious product design
As our society gets more environmentally conscious, manufacturers must incorporate “environmental qualities” into products. This paper proposes a general design methodology to support effectively environmentally consciousness design of products. The methodology employs three tools; LCA (Life Cycle Assessment), QFDE (Quality Function Deployment for Environment), and TRIZ (Theory of Inventive Pro...
