“Kawaii” is a Japanese word that denotes “cute,” “lovable,” or “charming” although it does not have exactly the same meaning as those adjectives. This book proposes engineering methodologies for systematic measurement of the affective perception of kawaii, by using virtual reality and biological signals, and discusses the effectiveness of kawaii engineering for designing industrial products and services. Kawaii can draw sympathy from people and can embody a special kind of cute design, which reduces fear and makes dull information more acceptable and appealing. Following the introduction of the background of kawaii engineering in Chapter 1, Chapters 2 and 3 describe experiments on the systematic measurement and evaluation methods for kawaii products and affective evaluation experiments. Chapter 4 proposes a mathematical model to identify the physical attributes that determine kawaii in motion. Chapters 5 and 6 explain research that uses biological signals and eye-tracking. After a brief survey of psychological research on kawaii and cuteness in Chapter 7, Chapters 8 and 9 introduce the use of spoons designed to stimulate the appetite of the elderly and the practical implementation of an emotion-driven camera. Chapters 10–14 explain experimental research that examines kawaii perception of people from various cultural backgrounds. Kawaii Engineering will appeal to those who work on affective computing, product design, user experience design, virtual reality, and biological signals.

This book is the latest volume in the series of Springer titles on emotional engineering, tracking the development of this field. In our society, "Culture" emerges at the dawn of each era, laying the foundation for the development of "Civilization," which is then passed on to the succeeding era. "Culture" embodies the timeless essence of human characteristics, transcending temporal and spatial boundaries, encompassing the visionary pursuit of the future and the relentless quest for self-realization. Both "Motivation" and "Emotion" stem from the Latin word Movere, denoting movement. Why do we, as living beings, bear the epithet "Creatures"? It is because we instigate movement to thrive. Unlike other animals, who move merely to subsist in the present, humans navigate life with an eye toward tomorrow. "Emotion” etymologically signifies "to move out" in Latin, implying the act of manifesting one's inner realm in the external world. However, as denoted by the term "VUCA" (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity, our society is rapidly evolving into a realm of increasing complexity and diversity, transitioning from the tangible to the intangible. While the tangible realm necessitates interaction, the evolving landscape calls for the intervention of technology. Technology delves into the realm of "How." Yet, "Culture" resides in the emotional domain, pondering "What" and "Why,", as does Engineering. The "Process" of daring to transform dreams into reality assumes paramount significance. History admonishes us that now is the opportune moment to forge a novel "Civilization" for the twenty-second century. Let us harness the power of Emotional Engineering to sculpt the twenty-second century "Civilization" into its best iteration. This book of collected chapters sums up this challenge and how we can meet it.

This book presents a co-design detailed methodology that will enable the reader to develop human-centered product designs, considering the user’s needs, skills, and limitations. The purpose of this book is to produce an ergonomic design methodology in which the "user’s voice" can be translated into product requirements in a way that designers and manufacturers can use, characterizing it as a co-design methodology. It discusses important topics including ergonomics and product design, design specifications, project evaluation, modeling and prototyping, product safety, human error, kansei/affective engineering, usability and user experience, models of usability, methods for research and evaluation of usability, methods for evaluation of user-experience, preliminary strategic design planning, detailing design, and design, ergonomic and pandemics. The book offers a human-centered design methodology that allows the reader to carry out analysis and design projects for both products aimed at the disabled user population and those that serve the general population. It will be a valuable reference text for undergraduate and graduate students and professionals in the fields of ergonomics, design, architecture, engineering, and related fields. It can also be used by students and professionals of physiotherapy and occupational therapy interested in designing products for people with special needs.

This book addresses current research trends and practice in industrial design. Going beyond the traditional design focus, it explores a range of recent and emerging aspects concerning service design, human–computer interaction and user experience design, sustainable design, virtual & augmented reality, as well as inclusive/universal design, and design for all. A further focus is on apparel and fashion design: here, innovations, developments and challenges in the textile industry, including applications of material engineering, are taken into consideration. Papers on pleasurable and affective design, including studies on emotional user experience, emotional interaction design and topics related to social networks make up a major portion of the contributions included in this book, which is based on five AHFE 2020 international conferences (the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Design for Inclusion, the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Interdisciplinary Practice in Industrial Design, the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Affective and Pleasurable Design, the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Kansei Engineering, and the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on Human Factors for Apparel and Textile Engineering) held on July 16–20, 2020. Thanks to its multidisciplinary approach, it provides graduate students, researchers and professionals in engineering, architecture, computer and materials science with extensive information on research trends, innovative methods and best practices, and a unique bridge fostering collaborations between experts from different disciplines and sectors.
