Presentation of the ID Research Groups
Department of Industrial Design
Loe Feijs
Visit Poly. Univ. Hong Kong

TU/e faculty of industrial design
Industrial Design – established in 2000
“Creating intelligent products and services”
• Strategic partners– Design Academy Eindhoven
– Philips Design
• Educational innovation– competencies needed by the professional field– learning and working closer together– new staff roles – away from traditional teacher
TU/e faculty of industrial design
Research: motivation and principles
– Why research?• as a window to the international research community• as a source of knowledge to feed the education program
– How? • Scientific• Constructive• Multidisciplinary
• Based on respect for man – adapting the product to the user, not the other way around– not putting an unnecessary cognitive and emotional load on the user

Paradigms
– Research paradigms• Modeling and formalization of the mind (psychology)• Modeling and formalization of the artifacts (engineering)• Research through design
TU/e faculty of industrial design
Paradigms
– What about truth? • Theory-experiment-falsification
– first proposed by Popper– typical for physics and psychology
• Specification-implementation-verification– both at product-level and at tool-level– typical for engineering (mechanical, electrical, software)

User Centered Engineering (UCE)
– Existing group• History in application-oriented perception and cognition
– Topics:• User-centered design,
– also for non-traditional user groups
• Multi-modal interaction styles and tele-presence• Methodology and evaluation• Speech, dialogue and image processing

Approach: bringing together

design process

Designed Intelligence
– New group• Some: background in engineering• Some: background in Industrial Design
– Topics:• Rich Interaction• Emotions• Flow• Ambient culture
TU/e faculty of industrial design
Designed Intelligence research questions
– how can we create new forms of interactions that are more
enjoyable than traditional user-interfaces?
– how can we design useful and meaningful forms of artificial
emotional intelligence?
– how can we design useful and meaningful forms of intelligent
systems which help in generating and managing flow experiences?
– how can we design systems of connected devices that are active in
a shared space such that the devices are aware of the users and of
other devices in a meaningful and helpful way?
