ABSTRACT
A benign development of enterprises often need to invest a large amount of money in product improvement design, the meaning of improved design is 1) to inherit the advantages of the original product; 2) and to innovate. In order to improve the efficiency of improved design, a new method is proposed based on evaluation grid method and function analysis method. Firstly, the charm factor of the target product is obtained through the evaluation grid method. Then, the importance degree of each charm factor is analyzed by quantification theory. Finally, the innovative design of the target product is carried out in combination with the function analysis method. In this paper, highchair is used as a case study to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.
