如何使物联网设备民主化。参与式设计研究
How to democratize Internet of Things devices. A participatory design research
摘要：
在全球范围内推出经济实惠的物联网（IoT）设备，为满足不同需求的各种用户提供了机会。然而，许多现成的数字产品仍然没有被犹豫不决的技术用户或老年人广泛采用，尽管这些设备的设计和用户交互被认为是用户友好的。鉴于物联网设备的潜力，我们如何减少数字素养低和技术焦虑人群的障碍，使他们能够平等地参与数字化世界？本文展示了通过参与式设计方法开发的社区利益相关者研讨会的方法和成果，旨在通过焦点小组和结构化调查集思广益的问题和场景。研究活动的重点是了解因素，以提高犹豫用户的现成物联网设备的可用性，并确定提高数字素养和减少技术焦虑的策略。一个值得注意的结果是一系列反馈项目，指出创建学习资源以支持具有不同能力，年龄，性别表达的个人的重要性，以更好地采用现成的基于物联网的解决方案。
英文摘要：
The global introduction of affordable Internet of Things (IoT) devices offers an opportunity to empower a large variety of users with different needs. However, many off-the-shelf digital products are still not widely adopted by people who are hesitant technology users or by older adults, notwithstanding that the design and user-interaction of these devices is recognized to be user-friendly. In view of the potential of IoT-based devices, how can we reduce the obstacles of a cohort with low digital literacy and technology anxiety and enable them to be equal participants in the digitalized world? This article shows the method and results achieved in a community-stakeholder workshop, developed through the participatory design methodology, aiming at brainstorming problems and scenarios through a focus group and a structured survey. The research activity focused on understanding factors to increase the usability of off-the-shelf IoT devices for hesitant users and identify strategies for improving digital literacy and reducing technology anxiety. A notable result was a series of feedback items pointing to the importance of creating learning resources to support individuals with different abilities, age, gender expression, to better adopt off-the-shelf IoT-based solutions.
