Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop convergence fashions using Low-tech, through which the structure which the structure and operating principle may be readily understood by beginners in the realm of fashion, including designers and artists. For this, the R&D program is 15 weeks and consists of 4 stages: `prototype development concept ideation,` `concept configuration and design,` `prototype development` and `evaluation and refinement of usability` This program was designed, and the convergence fashion product development workshop was performed, by 2 designers and 1 engineer. In the 1st stage of the program, the function concepts of 6 prototypes were generated. Subsequently, their effectiveness` were assessed and 2 prototype development concepts -`touchable-wear with vibrating function as warning for the deaf` and `taser-coat with rear-side detection and electric shock functions for women`s prevention`-were then selected in the 2nd stage. In the 3rd stage, each fashion platform and digital system was developed. In the 4th stage, then, the efficient usability of each prototype was evaluated and several points required refinement to enhance the usability. Based on the test results, the prototypes` structures and system were refined for final completion of the development. As a result, both functional convergence fashion prototypes were ultimately established.
