“…Achiche et al 74 have pointed out that the required number of expert participants is far less than general participants. For instance, five experts participated in the research by Achiche, Appio 74 and four experts participated in the study presented by Doré et al 75 . Additionally, Charyton and Merrill 76 have employed two experts for assessing general creativity and creative engineering design.…”

Creativity is a crucial element of design. The aim of this study is to investigate the driving forces behind combinational creativity. We propose three driven approaches to combinational creativity, problem-, similarity-, and inspiration-driven, based on previous research projects on design process, strategy, and cognition. A case study involving hundreds of practical products selected from winners of international design competitions has been conducted to evaluate the three approaches proposed. The results support the three driven approaches and indicate that they can be used independently as well as complementarily. The three approaches proposed in this study have provided an understanding of how combinational creativity functions in design. The approaches could be used as a set of creative idea generation methods for supporting designers in producing creative design ideas.

“…In product design, the process from design to manufacturing of a prototype is the so-called preliminary design. It is said that decisions made by designers account for 70% of total product development costs at this step [2,3]. On the other hand, user requirements are usually used as validity evaluation factors of a usability which is tested after the preliminary design by using functional mock-ups.…”

This paper explores how a prototype of an IT appliance is manufactured through designing a housing of the appliance aesthetically, and designing the interface of its display. The aim of this study is to understand the role of prototype, and to clarify the problems and insufficient technology with which we should confront, and to investigate the efficient solutions to manufacture IT appliances well. The prototype manufacturing process presented here are to sketch the housings, to create clay models, to create 3D CAD models, to design interface of a display for an IT appliance, to manufacture functional mock-ups, and to examine the usability. An appliance to be developed is an artery pulse monitoring system named (APMOS). APMOS can measure blood pressure and the artery pulse, and let us know the condition for judging the possibility of arteriosclerosis. In this paper, we discuss in detail a manufacturing process from the concepts of the idea sketches to the usability test of the functional mock-up of APMOS.

“…Often the results become a standard for following products. To address this issue, researchers have developed prototyping tools [9,14,16,23,34]. However, many of the previous studies stressed the implementation of the prototype itself.…”

This paper presents a model to conceptualize interactivity to help people involved in interaction design. Previous studies on interactivity prototyping focus on tools to implement interactivity concepts. Little is found on models for conceptualizing interactivity. Our objective is to suggest an analytic model to explore the whole user experience by examining the degree of interactivity of a product. This is achieved by interpreting the notion of interactivity as conversation. A conceptualization model, named MCI (model for conceptualizing interactivity), was developed to measure the degree of interactivity. The model can be used to measure and compare the level of user engagement, which in many situations is used as an indication of positive user experience. We illustrate how the model can be used to analyze interactivity in three audio recorder design projects. The proposed model is expected to lead to an interactivity prototyping tool for various product categories including interactive media installations, tangible media, and other intelligent digital products in a ubiquitous computing environment.
