| dc.description.abstract | Reading is a fun activity that many people
engage in, whether for an exam, leisure, or to gain
knowledge on a specific subject. Because reading usually
takes a long time, the reader should be as comfortable as
possible while reading. A reading chair is an essential piece
of furniture to have. As per our research findings, there are
numerous reasons why someone should have a reading
chair in his or her reading room rather than sitting in
alternative ways such as standing or lying down on mats.
The methodology used is document analysis and
questionnaires with 192 respondents. Furthermore, the
research indicates that backache is a common problem for
avid readers and people who sit for long periods and is
strongly related to their posture. According to research,
Kansei Engineering is a method for translating consumer
Kansei into product design elements. According to this
study, Kansei engineering translates customers'
psychological needs and feelings into the design of
products and services. This technique will allow designers
and manufacturers to incorporate Kansei into product
design to gain a competitive advantage. Our research
paper proposes a smart reading chair design based on
Kansei Engineering's fundamental principles and
methods, which provided scientific guidance for designing
a chair to meet consumers' emotional needs. | en_US |
