Abstract

Nowadays, user experience (UX) is treated as an essential element to be considered by smart device designers. UX of the disabled is also considered important, as the welfare of the disabled has become a major issue in today's society. This study aims to propose a new concept of the value of UX, from the perspective of the human life value. UX design principles and UX design properties on a smart device design for the disabled were also defined to enhance the value of the smart device's experience. Literatures that related to UX, human/life value, and product/service's value were collected from various academic fields like philosophy, economics, ergonomics, and education to define and analyze the smart device UX. Industrial literatures related to smart device/application design guidelines, usability/accessibility guidelines were also collected to develop the UX design principles and properties. Collected literatures were analyzed to define the value elements of UX such as utilitarian value, affective value, and social value that affect the human life value of the disabled. UX design principles were developed based on the value elements of UX and existing design guidelines. The UX design properties were refined from the literatures.
