Abstract

Many recent designs have been extending with the more significance in innovative designs, and this research aims to elicit those innovative elements of different products. In particular, the purpose is to comprehend the correlation between the consumer behaviour and those observed factors. Also, this research analyzes current electronics to demonstrate how innovative factors could affect the buyers' intention. Through a preceding research and examining the documents, "Aesthetic Appreciation," "Function/Structure," "Practicality," "Contribution" and "Admiration," were drawn out as five factors of innovative product designing. By connecting those factors to the investment plan in innovative products or conventional products, this research attempts to determine which factor has significant impacts on the buyer's decision. Survey questions were also given out to study the acceptance criteria of buyers when it comes to innovative items. The result showed that the range of consumer acceptance was dispersed relatively evenly and this survey functioned as effectual data for analyzing the consumer behavior. The correlativity of innovative factors in a product and consumers' purchase behavior is as follows. Investment in items that are regarded as highly innovative mostly derived from the appreciation for the aesthetic value, but items that are usually known as being conventional seemed to have influence on consumers that were mostly looking for practical value or functionality. It was evident that a product with higher emphasis on its innovativeness has been relatively more affected by the desire for "aesthetic appreciation." The research was able to find out that the innovativeness of a product has significant influences on consumers' deciding factors and how differences between many innovative products could benefit those people with the element of surprise.
