There is something magical about shoes… They can create an irresistible desire or be the one thing that we want to get rid of the most at the end of a long day. When people by shoes the chose more out of appearance rather then comfort. The result is a fact. The feet feel tired and soar after a couple of hours and the only thoughts are about the aching feet that firmly object to the way there being treated. Who will say no to a relaxing foot massage in this moment? …Sometimes they seem to have shrunken after a couple of hours… Does your legs feel heavy and swollen when you are sitting down for a couple of hours, maybe in front of the computer or during a flight? Do you have or are you starting to get visible veins alongside your legs? Do your feet often turn cold? Then maybe you are one of the 40 % in Sweden who suffers from reduced circulation of the blood, a so called vein insufficiency. This projects aims to find a solution that will ease the pain for a foot that feels tired and soar, beside this a solution that also increases the blood circulation in the legs during a longer time sitting down. The work has been carried out according to the principles of DPD - Dynamic Product Development (Ottosson, 2002). The project started with an idea and resulted in a product that is ready for the market. The project has resolved in two different solutions hence the problem was separated into two that would hopefully be introduced on the market shortly: Solution one is a massage slipper Njuta (English = Enjoy) that easy and quickly eases the pain in the feet with an adjustable foot massage. The tramp machine Cirkulera (English= Circulate) is used to keep the blood circulation going and prevent possible complaint. The solution activates the muscle pump so it can help to press the blood back up to the heart through the veins and this will prevent the blood from in slogging in the feet and legs.

Preventing fatal effects of overworking : Product design solutionAdawi, Rahim January 2018 (has links)
“Overworking to death” is a phenomenon that has been noticeable in developing countries. The cause of death is mainly through ischemic strokes. While the victims’ occupations differed, they all shared a common characteristic, being positioned in a sedentary work, ranging from IT workers to doctors. This project’s aim was to develop a product that prevented or decreased the strokes that derived from sedentary overwork. This was mainly tackled by preventing one of the three causes of developing blood props, slowed blood flow. In order to gather rich data of the phenomenon, a qualitative study was conducted in China, during two months. By doing an extensive structured sampling, information rich data could be gathered during a short period of time. Data were derived from observations, questionnaires and an interview, which then was interpreted to customer needs and the final product specification. The final product became a trouser with an in built dynamic compression mechanic, that can compress the veins mostly during sitting activities, in order to prevent blood stasis. The compression mechanic works like the Chinese finger trap; compressing the calves while sitting and stretching the legs forward. It is made only out of polysaccharides fibres; cotton and corn. / "Guolaosi" eller död från överarbete är ett fenomen som i regel uppkommer bland utvecklingsländer. Dödsorsaken är huvudsakligen genom stroke. Offrens yrken varierar allt från professorer, IT-arbetare till läkare. De delar dock en sak gemensamt; att arbeta under långa perioder stillasittande. Projektets mål var att utveckla en produkt som minskar dödliga följderna av sedentära överarbete, genom att förebygga en av de tre orsakerna för att utveckla blodproppar; saktad blodström. Målgruppen var då kineser av de yrken som hade tidigare drabbats av fenomenet. För att samla informationsrika data om fenomenet genomfördes en kvalitativ studie i Kina under två månader. Genom att göra en omfattande strukturerad provtagning kunde informationsrika data samlas under en kort tidsperiod. Fältstudien bestod av observationer, frågeformulär och en intervju, som då tolkades till kundbehov och eventuellt produktspecifikationen. Den slutliga produkten kom att bli ett par byxor med en inbyggd dynamisk komprimeringsmekanism, som kan komprimera venerna under sittande aktiviteter, för att förhindra saktad blodström. Kompressionsmekanismen fungerar som den kinesiska fingerfällan. Den komprimerar blodkärlen medan personen sitter och sträcker benen framåt. Produkten är konstruerad på så sätt att den kan tillverkas endast av polysackariders tråd, från bomull och majs. Vilket är lämpligt för Kinas lokala resurser.
