IDENTIFYING TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS FOR USER-CENTRIC PRODUCT DESIGNS
First Claim
1. A method for identifying at least one technological solution for use in a user-centric product design, comprising:
- acquiring knowledge of at least one user outcome based on a user-centric product design goal;
identifying at least one action to realize at least a portion of the at least one user outcome;
identifying at least one task for the at least one action; and
identifying at least one technological solution for the at least one task.

Abstract
A method to identify technological solutions for user-centric product designs is disclosed. The method includes acquiring knowledge of a user-centric product goal and a user outcome, identifying actions that may achieve the desired user outcome, and identifying tasks pertaining to each action. Upon identifying actions that may be necessary to achieve the desired outcome and identifying tasks corresponding to each action, technology may then be considered and technological solutions for performing the tasks may be determined. A visual depiction of the technological solutions charted to the corresponding tasks may be provided to assist with designing a product best suited for product users. The identified technological solutions may be implemented into the product design to produce a user-centric product.
