Abstract
Innovation design is the trend of products in the future. User-oriented design (UOD) is a design process which focuses on the needs of the user and develops product concepts for them. The objective of this research is to find the UOD patterns from four digital products cases. The cases included ‘Home Scenario Control’, ‘Wireless Conference Room Facility Controller‘, ‘Medical Tablet PC‘ and ‘Elderly Care System and Interface‘. The results evidence that we can find ‘real‘ needs and users’ ‘problems‘ concerning different digital products and that we can also integrate differing opinions from various professional fields.
