First International Conference on Smart Design details
This conference will provide a timely forum and enable researchers and practitioners to:
- discuss issues
- identify challenges and future directions
- share their research and development findings and experiences in the areas of design, materials and technology.
The introduction of new materials and rapidly changing technologies is assigned huge and unprecedented importance in the economy of the twenty-first century. Good product designs merge materials technology and hardware into a unified user experience. This experience is one where the technology recedes into the background and people benefit from the capabilities and experiences available.
By focusing on functional gain, critical awareness and emotive connection, even the most multifaceted and complex technology can be made to feel straightforward and become an integral part of daily life. Researchers, designers and developers must understand how to progress or appropriate the right technical and human knowledge to inform their innovations.
