Designing for other people’s strengths and motivations: Three cases using context, visions, and experiential prototypes

User‐Centric Service Map for Identifying New Service Opportunities from Potential Needs: A Case of App Store Applications

“…However, they have been widely accepted in the areas of service development and management as a method to identify users' potential needs (Prahalad & Ramaswamy, ; Matthing, Sanden & Edvardsson, ). Through a user‐centric approach, businesses can acquire information about user needs beyond what can be gained from traditional market research (Kristensson, Matthing & Johansson, ; Stappers et al., ).…”

“…As user context will be uncertain, and may change before and while the service is being used, it influences how the needs can be satisfied (Sweeney, ) and thus reflects potential needs. As a result, there has been an attempt to apply user context to derive a potential domain of new services in the conceptualization process (Carayannis & Coleman, ; Stappers et al., ).…”

From designing to co-designing to collective dreaming

“…Innovation no longer comes from just market pull (what people ask for) or technology push (what is invented), but also from a contextual push [2], The means-originally the object of design-became the second step in the designers' work. Soon designers and design researchers were being called upon to get involved in exploring what to design, not only how to design it.…”

Control and optimization of human perception on virtual garment products by learning from experimental data

“…The basic element of collaborative design is the Internet-based visual platform showing interactions between the product, the designer and the customer. Based on 3D visual models, new design methodologies, such as scenario-oriented design or context-oriented design [3], customized product design [4], are developed for dealing with different application contexts. They permit to realize the product design by visualizing a virtual person using the virtual product in a virtual scenario.…”
