사물인터넷환경에서의 사용자 경험 향상을 위한 날씨정보 중심의 스마트홈 서비스 개발 연구

Abstract

This research focuses on smart-home service design providing more active and personalized ‘care,’ and aims to suggest a blueprint of smart-home services that can contribute to advancing the user’s quality of life through the use of loT technology. The double diamond process was applied as a research methodology. The service vision focusing on weather information was derived through the process of analyzing user experiences, and it was refined through service blueprints and prototype development. This research is significant in that it i) suggests a service solution to minimize the initial entry price of smart-home technologies and integrate the home appliances already owned by the user through the use of a central controller device and application, ii) suggests a service design that considers various forms of customer lifestyles and allows a variety of personalized settings, and iii) attempts to visualize the needs for energy conservation through the service application. It is hoped that research about smart-home services to enhance user experience could be expanded on the basis of this study.
