ESTADO DEL ARTE DE LA INGENIERÍA KANSEI PARA SU PROYECCIÓN EN INDUSTRIA 4.0

Abstract

Kansei Engineering is a quantitative methodological tool focused on design and development of industrial products emotionally pleasing accepted for the users. Methodology's main objective is to support design engineers to incorporate emotion, affection and feelings as a requirement on products. Starting from the current applications of Kansei Engineering we will proceed with a state of the art technology in order to project the Kansei Engineering to the design and development of industrial environments. The proposed methodology is focused on supporting the concept of ergonomics and human factors in work environments, thus supporting the research program Industry 4.0, framed in Horizon 2020, where the human factor is presented as fundamental. The aim of the Kansei Engineering in Industry 4.0 will be supporting the human-centered design factor, eliciting pleasurable feelings in work environments, providing motivation and comfort. This "Ergo-Team Work" will be developed to design environments that support the interaction between human and machine; workstations and work organization designed from kansei perspective.
