The aging population calls for more research efforts towards enhancing assisted living for elderly people living in Indonesia, including ergonomic housing that accommodates their characteristics and needs. This paper discusses a study to provide an ergonomic living-dining room design in elderly homes by applying the participatory design approach with six Indonesia elders. Through interviews and observations, a list of elderly user requirements was defined as a foundation to generate a number of design concepts. Furthermore, one design concept was selected and refined by applying the anthropometry data.

This paper reports an investigation of an industrial design project during the preliminary investigation and concept design stages. Conditions for the design project were established where some of the designers followed a more ‘user-centred’ approach to the design problem than others. It might have been expected that designers who were not adopting a user-centred approach would be more focussed on the visual appeal (style) or product technology aspects of their designs and might tend to disregard the interaction sequences involved in actual product use. It was found that designers in both groups resolved the ‘interaction design’ associated with the concepts to a similar level of detail. It was also found that the ‘user-centred’ designers did not tend to gather information on aesthetic issues when inquiring about end user requirements. The implications of these Findings for user-centred design methods are discussed.

With the introduction of field-emission sources and “immersion-type” objective lenses, the resolution obtainable with modern scanning electron microscopes is approaching that obtainable in STEM and TEM-but only with specific types of specimens. Bulk specimens still suffer from the restrictions imposed by internal scattering and the need to be conducting. Advances in coating techniques have largely overcome these problems but for a sizeable body of specimens, the restrictions imposed by coating are unacceptable.For such specimens, low voltage operation, with its low beam penetration and freedom from charging artifacts, is the method of choice.Unfortunately the technical dificulties in producing an electron beam sufficiently small and of sufficient intensity are considerably greater at low beam energies — so much so that a radical reevaluation of convential design concepts is needed.The probe diameter is usually given by

An accurate understanding of users' needs is essential for the development of innovative products. This article presents an exploratory method of user centered research in the context of the design process of technological products, conceived from the demands of a large information technology company. The method is oriented - but not restricted - to the initial stages of the product development process, and uses low-resolution prototypes and simulations of interactions, allowing users to imagine themselves in a future context through fictitious environments and scenarios in the ambit of ideation. The method is effective in identifying the requirements of the experience related to the product’s usage and allows rapid iteration on existing assumptions and greater exploration of design concepts that emerge throughout the investigation.

Food sensory analysis is the terms from the field of Food Technology that has a meaning which means sensory evaluation of food that is conducted by the food sensory evaluators. Currently, food sensory analysis is conductedmanually. It can caus e human errors and consume much ti me. The objective of this research is to build a web based application that is specific for food sensory analysis using PHP programming language. This research followsfour first steps of waterfall software engineering mod el which are user requirements ana lysis (user software and requirements analysis), system design (activity, use cases, architecture, and entity relationship diagram),implementation (software development), and testing (software unit, functionality, validit y, and user acceptance testing). T he software result is well built. It is also acceptable for users and all functionality features can run well after going through those four software testing. The existence of the software brings easiness to deal with the manual food sensory analysis exper iment. It is considered also for the future it has business value by having open source and premium features.
