액티브시니어를 위한 스마트 헬스케어기반의 앱 콘텐츠 UX/UI 연구

초록

As the smart era emerges and the aging population grows while the aging becomes faster, people are getting increasingly interested in smart aging. In particular, those who are called active seniors focus on healthcare to make their late years better. Such changes facilitate the development of healthcare based application contents for application users so that they can manage their health in a more convenient way. Thus, this study explored application contents for active seniors to use them in a more efficient and convenient way than existing smart healthcare ones. The study was intended to review the development status of smart application contents together with smart healthcare application contents and classify patterns in which active seniors use smart healthcare application contents regarding the method and scope of the study. Case study was carried out by setting up modules with respect to the elements such as interaction and GUI which would make active seniors use healthcare based application contents effectively. Then, factors that are likely to make smart healthcare application contents difficult for active seniors to use them were identified. The result indicated that healthcare based application contents should be efficient and simple to ensure active seniors easy access to such contents. The result also suggested that components of the application contents based on the existing smart healthcare ones should have more detailed items with operation by touch gesture interactions and intuition by efficient GUI structures while developing smart healthcare application contents so that active seniors can use them in an easy and convenient way.
